Abstract

We intend to reflect about the meaning of the expression practical consequences that appears in Peirce's definition of Pragmatism, considering the nearness of this meaning to the Kantian concept of possible experience. Beyond the immediate phenomenological sense of that expression, we also intend to explore its ethical meaning, i.e., concerning to the human conduct in general, point of view under 'which Peirce build the foundation of his critic to the inconsistency of skepticisms supported only by theoretical conjectures.
