Analyzing Ryder's work through its relationship with open-mindedness allows us to enrich a theory that considers this virtue as a core philosophical concept. Furthermore, it enlightens Ryder's philosophy showing some of its implications. This paper details relevant aspects of the relation between open-mindedness as virtue and Ryder´s pragmatic naturalism. %K Open-mindedness %K relational ontology %K fallibilism %K liberalism %K democracy %~ Universidad de Cádiz
