After the Civil War, the American Way of Life was changed into materialism or mammonism with the economic development. In the rapid growth of American economy, an economic contradiction came out. From this fact, in order to pass over the issue, Americans needed to have a type of philosophy. At this time, the ideas of Americans estimated human s value via money itself.

In the mid-1880s, Pragmatism including the proposition that The idea or truth of an action is dependent on the results was showcased. Then, pragmatism was known to not only philosophers but also the public people. However, Pragmatism it self was widely used in America from the late 1930s to the 1940s. In the 1930s, America that was struggling to overcome the Economic panic happened at the late 1929 was the New Deal age. This New deal policy was just pragmatic.
