Pragmatism

  • Common Mistakes about Ethics: Radio Interview: 10 Oct 2012

  • Being Pragmatic: Webcast Q&A: 29 Jan 2012, Question 1
  • Question: What's wrong with being pragmatic? My dictionary defines being pragmatic as "dealing with things sensibly and realistically in a way that is based on practical rather than theoretical considerations." What's wrong with that, if anything? Is that the same as "pragmatism"?
