内容説明

This study aims to demolish the most malicious misconceptions of the subject of postmodernism by explaining why it is so emotionally and politically disturbing. It shows that postmodernism is less a theory than a condition of social life brought about by the trouble modernity has got itself into. Globalization, the media and popular culture, identity politics, the science wars, politics and cultural studies, structuralism and post-structuralism, and the new sociologies are put into perspective as signs of the new social formations dawning at the end of the modern age.
