We all are. It's the time period we live in.

I don't like postmodernism because structuralist analysis allows us to much more effectively understand the world. In its ideological crusade against structural modes of thought, postmodernism falls prey to the same reductionism which they accuse of Marxists, Freudian psychologists, and semiotic literary scholars.

Post-structuralism just turns everything into a jumbled mess.

we're on the brink of post-postmodern

>Post-structuralism just turns everything into a jumbled mess.

I don't necessarily agree with that thesis. i think that almost every field, branch, discipline, etc. has a set of best-practices and heuristics which they use to
reliably solve the various problems of their respective fields Those won't necessarily go away until something better comes along.

I think that post structuralism has the potential to be more of a curveball than a wrench into the works if that makes sense.
Sure there are risks but i think the worst that could happen are maybe changes in the legislation. Nothing too radical would happen so long as the population were literate.
Think of all the radical changes the arts have underwent in the past few centuries, we have clear and accessible documentation surrounding the before and after of every major movement and genre.

Post-structuralist seems to be more of the foundations for another universalist movement than a movement in itself.

user, this thread is about post-modernism. your post does not follow.

Will we one day lament this transition and say "we need to go back to post-modernism?"

Why should I subscribe to post-structuralism?

you know I really don't wanna be called a pseud for this, but isn't all art (or at least a very large potion of art) inherently post-modernist?
