Speculative Pragmatism
Speculative pragmatism is a response to John Dewey's plea for speculative audacity. It should come to be regarded as a major contribution to metaphysics and to the ongoing renaissance of American pragmatist philosophy.
The Trouble with Speculation
Bringing together contributors from Europe, North America and Australia, this book questions the purpose and outcomes of speculation in practical settings. In the context of interrelated and complex global challenges, speculation is not just useful but necessary. The chapters in this book present a cross-disciplinary dialogue of people that are developing work in speculation and interrogates its practices and ethical and political charges. Through these discussions, the book explores the potential of speculation in addressing issues such as climate change, urban futures and new political practices.
