postmodernism  

Definición

  • Postmodernism is a theoretical orientation often associated with deconstruction, the linguistic turn, neopragmatism, contextualism, contingency, irony, pluralism, social constructivism, antiessentialism, and the decentered self. While the term shares the skepticism toward religious supernaturalism that inheres in Enlightenment liberalism, it also carries with it a critique of modernity—its foundationalism, essentialism, universalism, monism, and word-fact correspondence.
