Charlotte Perkins Gilman: Instrumentalism beyond Dewey
Hypatia 8 (2):38 - 63 (1993)
| Abstract | Charlotte Perkins Gilman and John Dewey were both pragmatists who recognized the need to restructure the environment to bring about social progress. Gilman was even more of a pragmatist than Dewey, however, because she addressed problems he did not identify-much less confront. Her philosophy is in accord with the spirit of Dewey's work but in important ways, it is more consistent, more comprehensive and more radical than his instrumentalism. | |||||||||
