Postmodernism: Critical Concepts (Hardcover)

In the last three decades, Postmodernism has emerged as a significant cultural, political and intellectual force that has left unyielding critiques of architecture, selfhood, knowledge formation, ethics, history, economics and politics in its wake. While there are countless texts today that chronicle the advent and current status of postmodernism, most of the primary and historically significant accounts of postmodernism took place in scholarly journals long before the publication of these books. Until now, these pertinent and historically necessary texts remain uncollected. This title aims to provides scholars with an interdisciplinary collection of essays that map out the ways in which postmodernism is conceptualized and demonstrate how it has caused a wide range of traditions and disciplines to redefine their objects of study and modes of inquiry.
