Abstract: (67 Views)
Finding meaning from life experiences is one of the main goals of the Philosophy for Children program, which was designed by Matthew Leppiman and is implemented and followed in the research community. In this article, the presuppositions of Lipman's meaning making in the research community are explained and criticized. Criticism of these presuppositions is done based on the approach of Richard Rorty's neopragmatism. Because he is considered one of the important pioneers in the field of criticism of the tradition of western philosophy.. In order to advance this research, we try to answer three questions: 1- What are the presuppositions of finding meaning in the research community? 2 What is Rorty's opinion about these assumptions? 3- Based on the perspective of Rorty's neopragmatism, what are the criticisms on the presuppositions of finding meaning in the research community? ? Due to the criticality of the current research, the method of developmental criticism has been used to criticize the methods of finding meaning in the research community, and the method of content analysis has been used to explain the presuppositions of finding meaning in the research community and also to reveal the foundations of Lipman and Rorty's thought. The findings of the research indicate that Lippmann's dual pragmatist-realist epistemology, his definition of rationality and having a purely instrumental view of language is the point of contrast between his thoughts and Rorty. From Rorty's point of view, the subject of philosophy should be inclined from epistemology to culture, and meaning should be examined as culture. He is of the opinion that language should be considered as an important element, not just as a tool to talk and communicate with others. Therefore, relying on Rorty's thoughts, Lipman's presuppositions of meaning making in the research community need to be fundamentally revised and reconsidered.
