Postmodernism has become the buzzword of contemporary society. But how can it be defined? In this introduction the mysteries of this elusive concept is unravelled, casting a critical light upon the way we live now, from the politicizing of museum culture to the cult of the politically correct. The key postmodernist ideas are explored and challenged, as they figure in the theory, philosophy, politics, ethics and artwork of the period, and it is shown how they have interacted within a postmodernist culture.
