Description
Postmodernism has become the buzzword of contemporary society over the last decade. But how can it be defined? In this highly engaging introduction, the mysteries of this most elusive of concepts are unraveled, casting a critical light upon the way we live now, from the politicizing of museum culture to the cult of the politically correct. The key postmodernist ideas are explored and challenged, as they figure in the theory, philosophy, politics, ethics, and artwork of the period, and it is shown how they have interacted within a postmodernist culture.

An exploration in cognitive dissonance
It’s a very weird thing to read an introductory book about something that seems devoted to disprove it. I’m not enough of an expert to verify all the claims made in this book but it was doubtful that the author was entirely fair considering he spent most of his time criticizing post-modernism instead of explaining it. In my domain of expertise I can clearly say the author does not know what he is talking about. At times he seems to be conflating an invitation to consider how some ideas have more or less power in society and can orient how we view the world. When confronted with this idea the author seems to think post modernism means repudiating all discourses of power instead of simply seeing them as many ways of seeing a reality. To conclude the book is not awful but it feels like taking a course given by a teacher that doesn’t like the subject matter and keeps criticizing it while explaining it.
