For the split of the subject between the idiosyncratic and the public, and the impossibility of reconciling these two planes, the American philosopher Richard Rorty invents his utopia of democracy and liberal ironist and defends an alternative to expansion of human solidarity. Both the expansion of solidarity, and to create a utopia, the idea of contingency is central. Marked by time and cultural traditions of their society, the subject no longer has essences or nature, but a plot of episodes described by a language quota. The contingency of language and identity are articulated ideas for dealing with descriptions of themselves and the world as a result of the capacity of human imagination. Breaking with the idea of objectivity able to access a reality independent of the contingencies and language, Rorty names of redescription reinvent the process in which our vocabularies to resolve conflicts and then progressing intellectually and morally. Such progress comes in the enlargement of the conversation and the guarantee of private individuals to autocriation. By imagination and redescription, philosophy Rorty literature search instrument capable of bringing individuals, showing their similarities and contingencies, to expand the sense of solidarity in a community. The central aim of this dissertation is to understand the philosophy of Richard Rorty as from the contingency literature redescriptions acts on the vocabulary of private individuals and enables the expansion of the feeling of solidarity.
