Abstract

R. Rorty constructed the neo-pragmatism philosophy by criticizing the traditional mirror philosophy based on the fundamental of human reasoning and language. In Rorty's arguments, there is no foundation constructs the criterion of morale. The moral rules we decided to obey are just the contingency temporary consensus derived from the daily life. The aim of this paper is to explore the characters of Rorty's moral program and its implications in Taiwan's moral education. Three conclusions are made as follows: (1)the emotional desire should be included and be respected in the process of moral education; (2)the identity of minority should not be hooked on moral significance; and (3)the moral teaching with literature texts is to express the feelings about lived experiences instead of putting burden on the ideal cognition of morality.
