Summary/Abstract: The autor probes into the epistemological roots of Rorty's liberalism and describes the mental evolution by which the unpolitical ideas presented in Philosophy and the Nature's mirror obtained political meaning in Rorty's philosophicalpolitical writings. Focusing on Rorty's usage of the notion of incommensurability, the author claims that Rorty fails to explain to the liberals of enlightenment why his postmodern liberalism is better than modern liberalism.
