Pragmatism is a largely American system of philosophical thought popularized by William James. It is related to contextualism in that it shares the same truth criterion of successful working. Feel free to add to this page if you are a fan.

• The BBC has recently run a radio show on pragmatism that is pretty interesting and a good introduction to pragmatism. You can listen to it online if you are interested in the theory or a bit of its history.
