Produktbeschreibung

Academic Paper from the year 2022 in the subject Politics - Topic: International relations, grade: A, , course: Cultural Studies, language: English, abstract: Thomas Hobbes in Leviathan asserts that; "For there is no such thing as perpetual Tranquility of mind, while we live here; because Life itself is but Motion, and can never be without Desire, nor without Fear, no more than without Sense". It can be argued that an illusion of this tranquility is dependent on the state of mind one decides to embrace. Postmodernity is one among others. The postmodernist mind has been criticized for the critical and demolishing eye it uses to approach the issues of society. In Intimations of Postmodernity (2003) - INTRODUCTION: The re-enchantment of the world or, how can one narrate postmodernity? Zygmunt Bauman presents postmodernity as an ideology that seeks above all to "destroy truth to find truth". It rejects absolutism but rather engages in constant deconstruction of past, present and future truths, standards and ideals. Bauman explains that postmodernity claims to restore truths eroded by modernity.
