She argues that the correct account of truth is one found in a certain kind of pragmatism: a true belief is one upon which inquiry could not improve, a belief which would not be defeated by experience and argument. This account is not only an improvement on the views of central figures such as Rawls and Habermas, but it can also make sense of the idea that, despite conflict, pluralism, and the expression of difference, our moral and political beliefs aim at truth and can be subject tTruthPolitical sciencePhilosophyEthicsPragmatismInquiry (Theory of knowledge)Truth.Political sciencePhilosophy.Ethics.Pragmatism.Inquiry (Theory of knowledge)121Misak C.
