- Pragmatism is a straightforward practical way of thinking about things or dealing with problems, concerned with results rather than with theories and principles. Politicians are often described as pragmatic if they change their policies, or even their professed beliefs, based on what will produce results in a given political climate, or what will win them votes.
- Pragmatism is a philosophical tradition that began in the United States around 1870. Pragmatism rejects the idea that the function of thought is to describe, represent, or mirror reality. Instead, pragmatists consider thought an instrument or tool for prediction, problem solving and action. Pragmatists contend that most philosophical topics—such as the nature of knowledge, , concepts, meaning, belief, and science are all best viewed in terms of their practical uses and successes.
