As the first step to take the characteristics of Rorty's postmodernism, I finished writing "The Postmodern in R.Rorty" in advance of this paper. Therefore the purpose of this paper as the second step is to make the terminal of Rorty's thought obvious. I think that I could survey the thought of Rorty who is a pragmatist according to J.Dewey through the previous paper and this one. I put five key terms into the question, namely Moderne controversy and deconstruction ot philosophy in the previous paper, and blind impress, liberal ironist and solidarity in this paper. However, because Rorty is aware that his thought is a final vocabulary, he doesn't necessarily consider that his thought will contribute to public purposes. The characteristics of such Rorty's thought indicate remarkably that he is a liberal ironist.
