| Summary: | Postmodernity can be described as an aggregate of philosophical currents dominated by deconstruction and the critique of ontotheology. It is also possible, in a much broader and more concrete way, to approach it as a social and political phenomenon, characterised by the fall of utopias and the correlative rise of an egotist individualism. It is this latter aspect that we will discuss here. Indeed, this aspect seems likely to open to a critical description, bringing to light at the same time the innovative aspects of postmodernity (opening to difference, augmented personalization) and its problematic sides (radicalism, racism, mobbing, sectarianisms). By doing so, we will also examine how Tillich might help us to deepen the fruitful dimensions of postmodernity, as well as to struggle with some of its destructive and inhuman modalities. |
