the view stating that there are many
the meaning of the word 'right' in life
human, and every word has different
meanings depending in different
contexts. On this point, one can draw
conclusions that the meaning of the
word 'right' one is equivalent position
the meaning of the word 'true' other.

internal contradictions in him itself,
while not perhaps shared by anyone.

thinking is more appropriate

today. The contrast with the previous
definition, relativism in the sense that
no damage is view stating that all the
practices and trust us now equally
should be based on the philosophical
foundation any kind. In other words,
relativism is Rorty is actually a form of
pragmatism.
