Post-modernism is the rejection of the modernist program. Modernism is the idea that progress is possible the world is order-able and that reason is reasonable. a postmodernist thinks that reason and empiricism can be compromised by position (POV) by power, by tradition etc. The worst of them talk about multiple truths and that all data is theory-laden and such such-ness. in mathematics Modern is Bertram Russel - Post-Modern is Godel in cultural anthro Modern is Boaz - Post is Geertz (the dumb kind) and Rosado (the smart kind)
