In this paper from 1989, Richard Rorty distinguishes the realist from the pragmatist, and both from the relativist. Rorty argues that the realist wants to base solidarity on objectivity, while the pragmatist wants to base objectivity on solidarity. He also tells us that pragmatism takes away the comforting metaphysical thought that human beings will always end up developing in a direction we would recognise as good.
