4	1997	Liu, Fangtong. Dai xu : chong xin ren si he ping jia Duwei. Preface. In : [Dewey, John]. Xin jiu ge ren zhu yi : Duwei wei xuan [ID D28559]. [Re-understanding and re-evaluation Dewey]. "In the mid-fifties, dominated by the leftist political ideological line, a large-scale movement was launched in order to criticize pragmatism. This wave of critique mainly aimed to serve certain political purposes ; as a result, most critics divorced themselves from Dewey's pragmatism itself. Henceforth, the leftist political criterion dominated the academic criticism of Dewey and other western philosophers, resulting in oversimplified negation taking the place of objective and concrete analysis. As a result, the real image of Dewey and other western scholars as well as their theories was often twisted. Actually, the fundamental feature of Dewey's philosophy lies in its opposition against dualism, stressing that the world that man confronts, lives in and regards as the object of cognition, is the world in man's view (experience) that has been acted upon and reconstructed (humanized) instead of the world per se that exists outside of man."	Person: Dewey, John Person: Liu, Fangtong
