Summary/Abstract: Readers following the intellectual biography of John Gray wonder about his frequentcareer changes. In spite of appearances, Gray is not a soft chameleon without an ideologicalbackbone. Despite changes, he maintains a strong identity based on the doctrineof the pluralism of incommensurable values. To use Kierkegaard’s famous trichotomy,one could claim that he chooses an aesthetic existence, sensitive to axiological pluralism,but also founded on anthropological pessimism.
