I then argue that Rorty's replacement is itself not plausible and I further argue that, his affinities with pragmatism to the contrary notwithstanding, his ‘aestheticized pragmatism’ misses (a) the key social functions of philosophy (a reconstructed philosophy) articulated and practised by Dewey with his conception of philosophy as a criticism of criticisms and as social critique and (b) that Rorty's ‘pragmatism without method’ misses what is most distinctive in pragmatism, namely its conception of the expanded role in fixing belief for a flexible and non‐scientistic conception of scientific method in the stream of life. Rorty fails to see here the possibility for some form of critical theory as a successor subject to philosophy which still carr...
