This article analyzes the realist and naturalist epistemology of John Dewey, discussing his contribution to epistemology today. The focus of this research is to articulate the concepts, experience and nature of John Dewey’s epistemology to the contributions of contemporary authors. In the end, it aims to demonstrate that Dewey’s realism, characterized as naturalist, offers important contributions to the current epistemology when placed in a viewpoint contrary to objectivism, but without ignoring science. When opposing classical epistemology, Dewey does not intend to stray entirely from this area of philosophy, but to postulate a new theoretical model in which knowledge can be understood as mediated by natural, causal, cognitive, and cultural relations. It will be revealed that this perspective anticipates the current viewpoints of knowledge whose explanation passes through the notion of complexity and holism. |
