Focusing on the political dimensions of William James's work, this book explores the significance of pluralism in shaping political thought in the U.S. and England. Ferguson analyzes the interplay between American and European philosophical traditions at the turn of the century, highlighting James's anti-imperialist stance. By revealing James's unconventional political ideas, the author argues that pluralism, rather than uniformity, should be the aim of political and philosophical discourse, offering fresh insights into 20th-century political philosophy.
