American pragmatism has always had at its heart a focus on
questions of communities and ethics. This book explores the
interrelated work of three thinkers influenced by the pragmatist
tradition: Josiah Royce, Wilfrid Sellars, and Richard Rorty. These
thinkers' work spanned the range of twentieth-century philosophy,
both historically and conceptually, but all had common concerns
about how morality functions and what we can hope for in our
interactions with others. Steven Miller argues that Royce, Sellars,
and Rorty form a traditional line of inheritance, with the thought
of each developing upon the best insights of the ones prior.
Furthermore, he shows how three divergent views about the function,
possibilities, and limits of moral community coalesce into a key
narrative about how best we can work with and for other people, as
we strive to come to think of widely different others as somehow
being morally considerable as "one of us."
