Summary:Pragmatists use to focus on time, and more specifically on the future, as one of the main clues to their alleged change of perspective on things; they also claim that this transformation has something to do with a denunciation of dualism. This essay explores this claims, as set forward mainly by Rorty, and tries to show that the best way of making sense of them is adopting a triadic perspective, as suggested by Peirce, rather than a pluralist one, as proposed by James, Dewey and the mainstream of the pragmatic movement. Los pragmatistas acostumbran a dar gran importancia al tiempo, y muy en particular al futuro, como una de las claves para comprender su pretendido cambio de perspectiva sobre las cosas; también pretenden que esta transformación guarda relación con su denuncia del dualismo. Este artículo explora estas tesis, tal como han sido formuladas por Rorty, y trata de mostrar que el mejor modo de darles sentido es adoptar una perspectiva triàdica, tal como sugirió Peirce, en lugar de una perspectiva pluralista, tal como propusieron James, Dewey y la mayor parte de los autores que se adscriben al movimiento.
