“Postmodernism is the name for a movement in advanced capitalist culture, particularly in the arts. There is a sense in which if one sees modernism as the culture of modernity, postmodernism is the culture of postmodernity. The term post modernism originated among artists and critics in New York in the 1960s and was taken up by European theorists in the 1970s.”
Sarup, M. Post Structuralism & Post Modernism pp131-132
“Antimodernism is a term used to describe the international reaction to the onslaught of the modern world that swept across industrialised Western Europe, North America, and Japan in the decades around the turn of twentieth thropology, political science, history, and feminist media studies explore antimodernism as an artistic response to a perceived sense of loss - in particular, the loss of ‘authentic’ experience.”
Lee Jessup, L. Antimodernism and Artistic Experience: Policing the Boundaries of Modernity pp1
“the goal of hypermodern deliverance moves us in the opposite direction, replacing the biosphere with the techno sphere as fully and quickly as possible in people’s lives. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the last area in which we consider the current state of the promethean dream-education. I am defining education broadly to include not only the formal inculcation of knowledge and information that children and adolescents receive in classrooms but also the messages they receive about reality from the media and popular culture today.”
