Özet:

Contrary to some prejudices, it is not possible to thinkphilosophical views of Pragmatists dissociate from a moral theory. Becausethe ethical values and norms reflect the general character of the humanbeingand existance, pragmatist ethics is grounded on their understanding ofhumanbeing, their metaphysics rests upon the experience and their theory oftruth. Pragmatists who state that the ethics can be understood throughexperience emphasize on opening up our horizons related to ethics as anhappening case. Pragmatists assert the uncertainty, tension and conflictexisting in the moral experience root in the dynamic nature of reality. Andthey argue that the moral life could be achieved if the agent has moral sentiment, constracts his/her personality and approachs to pluralistic ethics. The other point Pragmatists emphasize is ethical propositions are good and therefore true as long as they make a useful contribution to the efforts of humanbeings.For them, this experimental verification process mediates both the construction of individuals and acquiring social goods.
