LOGICAL EMPIRICISM AND PRAGMATISM GEBUNDEN

This book explores the complexity of two philosophical traditions  extending from their origins
to the current developments in neopragmatism. Chapters deal with the first encounters of these
traditions and beyond  looking at metaphysics and the Vienna circle as well as semantics and
the principle of tolerance. There is a general consensus that North-American (neo-)pragmatism
and European Logical Empiricism were converging philosophical traditions  especially after the
forced migration of the European Philosophers. But readers will discover a pluralist image of
this relation and interaction with an obvious family resemblance.This work clarifies and
specifies the common features and differences of these currents since the beginning of their
mutual scientific communication in the 19th century. The book draws on collaboration between
authors and philosophers from Vienna  Tübingen  and Helsinki  and their networks. It will
appeal to philosophers  scholars in the history of philosophy  philosophers of science 
pragmatists and beyond.
