American philosopher Eduardo Mendieta in his three pragmatist lectures talks about the rise of pragmatism and its beginning, intertwined with European philosophical heritage, about the eclipse of early pragmatism between the wars and during the ii. world war, and about pragmatism's revitalization in the sense of social and critical philosophy that raises questions about interculturality and so called 'postethnic' America. The book also features an interview with dr. Mendieta, conducted by project researcher (T. Grušovnik), titled 'Questions of Identities in Contemporary America'.
