This main division rescues an often misunderstood, underappreciated, and radical reformer John Dewey. It centers on his refusal of traditional epistemology for his original and powerful view of "logic"—through serious implications for general philosophy, the philosophy of the human sciences, including psychology, and the philosophy of democracy. The goal of this drudge is not to try to set free Dewey from his critics, but to release Dewey from his friends—from those who ignore the implications of Dewey's naturalism to those influenced by Richard Rorty who take Dewey's rejection of insurrectionary politics too far.
