Habermas titles his last chapter “The Contemporaneity of the Young
> Hegelians,” underscoring an enduring shift in the locus of reason from
> subjective consciousness to intersubjective communication. He dismisses
> Karl Marx’s critique of ideology, which situated the theorist “over the
> heads of the *participants themselves*.” Instead, Habermas regards
> Charles Sanders Peirce, the founder of American pragmatism, as the true
> successor to the Young Hegelians. Peirce developed Feuerbach’s philosophy
> of language into a full-fledged theory of knowledge. For Peirce, scientific
> knowledge obtained solely in intersubjective understandings. Language was
> the essential medium coordinating between the external world and the
> research of the scientific community.

>From promulgator of a "method" to "knowledge obtained solely in
intersubjective understandings" in a week.
