Another Term For Postmodernism
A general explanation is that postmodernism is a contradiction in terms, as post means after and modern means now, it is impossible for anything to be after now. It is generally considered to be anything which makes little attempt to hide the fact that it is not real, it wants you to know that its been created and it wants you to recognise elements from elsewhere i.e. that they have 'stolen' ideas from other sources. There are no new or original ideas and that everything is in some way connected. Postmodernists want everything to be equal, they want to remove binary opposites and start again.
