: ''For themes emphasized by [[Charles Sanders Peirce]] see [[Pragmaticism]].''
'''Pragmatism''', as a school of [[philosophy]], is a collection of many different ways of thinking. Given the diversity among thinkers and the variety among schools of thought that have adopted this term over the years, the term ''pragmatism'' has become all but meaningless in the absence of further qualification. Most of the thinkers who describe themselves as ''pragmatists'' point to some connection with practical consequences or real effects as vital components of both [[meaning]] and [[truth]]. The precise character of these links to ''[[pragma]]ta'' is however as diverse as the thinkers who do the pointing.
