This is the first collection dedicated to exploring the connections between his body of work ahd America's most significant philosophical movement, pragmatism.
Habermas and Pragmatism considers the influence of pragmatism on Habermas's thought and the tensions between Habermasian social theory and pragmatism.

The collection also addresses the relationship to Habermas of Kant, Peirce, Mead, Dewey, Piaget, Apel, Brandom and Rorty.
