Neopragmatism is a 20th-century philosophical movement that reinterprets classical pragmatism, asserting that language is primarily a problem-solving tool and that many traditional philosophical problems arise from contingent vocabularies. It stands in direct opposition to foundationalism, essentialism, and the correspondence theory of truth, instead viewing the mind and self as linguistic constructs rather than reflections of an independent reality.

The concept was notably developed by American philosopher Richard Rorty in his influential 1979 book, Philosophy and the Mirror of Nature, which blended analytic philosophy with the pragmatic hopes of William James and John Dewey. Other key figures embracing neopragmatism include Hilary Putnam, while Donald Davidson was a major influence. Distinguished from classical pragmatism, this revival incorporates the early 20th-century "linguistic turn," shifting the focus from the mind's ideas to how words shape our understanding of the world.
