John Dewey's Social Philosophy

By Oswald Sobrino

This award-winning essay written in 1982-83, and now published as a book, affirms the relevance of John Dewey's social philosophy. John Dewey (1859-1952) was an American pragmatist philosopher who was a fixture as a public intellectual in the first half of the twentieth century and was most famous for his writings on education. Yet Dewey had a wider repertoire which included writings on epistemology (the theory of knowledge), on other philosophical topics, and on various social and political topics. This essay was the first-place winner in the 1983 John Dewey Undergraduate Essay Project sponsored by The Center for Dewey Studies at Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, Illinois. The original title of the essay was "The Relevance of John Dewey's Social Philosophy."
