Subject: [postanarchism] End of Post modernism?


Are we witnessing the death of post modernism with the Iraq war?

So, the reviews of "Philosphy in a Time of Terror: Dialogues with 
Habermas and Derrida" by Giovanna Borradori (Univ of Chicago) claim.

The tone is wholly different from the nonchalance of Baudrillard's 
reading of Gulf War I.

What does this mean for post modernism (which I'm still grasping to 
understand, embrace, or turn away in revulsion), and for a post 
structural reading of anarchism?

The existence of such alternatives to a dominant culture opens the door
for the analysis of unspoken forms of resistance, and for the search for
evidence that gives life to these alternatives even when they have no
voice.
