Everything Postmodern: postmodern thinkers.





The Thinkers A - G H - L M - Z Habermas \| Heidegger \| Horkheimer \| Jameson \| Lacan \| Lyotard \| Jurgen Habermas The motivating thought concerns the reconciliation of a modernity which has fallen apart, the idea that without surrendering the differentiation that modernity has made possible in the cultural, the social and economic spheres, one can find forms of living together in which autonomy and dependency can truly enter into a non-antagonistic relation, that one can walk tall in a collectivity that does not have the dubious quality of backward-looking substantial forms of community.
