Transcendental Pragmatics - Third Paradigm of First Philosophy. In the contribution we discuss the following thesis: actually the transcendental pragmatics is the third and decisive paradigm of first philosophy. This third paradigm is post-metaphysical and at the same moment inescapable for our reflection on foundation. It is incontestable in an argumentative perspective and a non-deductive instance, but reflective of an ultimate foundation of philosophical thought.
