Where Do Postmodernists Come From? Eagleton, Terry Publisher:  Monthly Review, Vol. 47, No. 3, July-August 1995, New York, USA Year Published:  1995   Pages:  12pp   Resource Type:  Article/Report/Letter Eagleton argues that left intellectuals have adopted postmodernism out of a sense of having been badly defeated, a belief that the left as a political tendency has little future. Culturalism, he argues, involves an extreme subjectivism combined with a deep pessimism, a sense that it isn't worth the effort to learn about the world, to analyze social systems, for instance, because they can't be changed anyway. Topics Academic Fads & Fashions Cultural Studies Ideology Post-Modernism Post-Structuralism
