초록
Cultural sensibilities beyond postmodernity have appeared in the constantly changing society. What, then, comes after postmodernism? Roughly since the year 2000, each post-postmodern theory has approached the issue beyond postmodernism with its unique perspective in its refutation of postmodernism. First, as seen from a semiotic/dialectic perspective, performatism and critical modernism are future-oriented, but still reminiscent of modernism. Second, hypermodernism and supermodernity present society and culture against postmodernism, toward modernity, in terms of excess. Third, digimodernism and automodernity have strong links with modernity produced by digital innovations. From the three categories of post-postmodern theories, a new modernity as the post-postmodern common factor is deduced. First, they reclaim certain modern tenets as seen from a semiotic/dialectic perspective. Second, post-postmodern theories are formulated in their adoption of cultural sensibilities produced by digital innovations. As a result of change, postmodernism as cultural concept has lasted only a shorter period. On the other hand, postmodernity will not disappear for several hundred years just as modernity still lives on under the postmodern circumstances. If so, who can offer any definite answer for what post-postmodernism is? Or should we wait more for a definite theory explaining what the current post-postmodernism is?
Abstract
Cultural sensibilities beyond postmodernity have appeared in the constantly changing society. What, then, comes after postmodernism? Roughly since the year 2000, each post-postmodern theory has approached the issue beyond postmodernism with its unique perspective in its refutation of postmodernism. First, as seen from a semiotic/dialectic perspective, performatism and critical modernism are future-oriented, but still reminiscent of modernism. Second, hypermodernism and supermodernity present society and culture against postmodernism, toward modernity, in terms of excess. Third, digimodernism and automodernity have strong links with modernity produced by digital innovations. From the three categories of post-postmodern theories, a new modernity as the post-postmodern common factor is deduced. First, they reclaim certain modern tenets as seen from a semiotic/dialectic perspective. Second, post-postmodern theories are formulated in their adoption of cultural sensibilities produced by digital innovations. As a result of change, postmodernism as cultural concept has lasted only a shorter period. On the other hand, postmodernity will not disappear for several hundred years just as modernity still lives on under the postmodern circumstances. If so, who can offer any definite answer for what post-postmodernism is? Or should we wait more for a definite theory explaining what the current post-postmodernism is?
