Inhaltsangabe

Neither a manifesto nor a one-sided critique, this new book introduces a number of original essays exploring various aspects of that contemporary cultural phenomenon named postmodernism. These essays are prefaced by an introductory essay which sets out the major lines of a debate which is about nothing less than the current shape and future prospects of our society.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Roy Boyne, Ali Rattansi

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Postmodernism is an eminently contestable concept. As its reference-points emerge in the work of philosophers, social theorists, film-makers, painters, sculptors, photographers, architects, designers, novelists, poets, and even politicians and generals, they create major crises for interpretation. Thus, the various authors within this text do not speak with one voice. Together, however, they provide a fine account of the central issues which are at stake. The substantial introduction by the editors traces the concept of postmodernism back to its roots, and provides a powerful and original assessment of its contemporary political relevance, especially in regard to questions of gender and race.
