The article focuses on "A Pragmatist Philosophy of Democracy" by Robert Talisse and its examination of pragmatic democracy using Charles Peirce's writings. It states that Talisse argues that an epistemic basis for democracy using Peirce's beliefs allows for reasonable pluralism while being able to justify why democracy is a preferable form of government. It questions if this justification for democracy can function without utilizing Peirce's more comprehensive views on the conditions needed for the development of the epistemic character required for true democratic practices.
