THE DILEMMA OF POSTMODERNISM: A CRITIQUE IN THE LIGHT OF BELL HOOKS VIEWS

Abstract

The study looks into the deep rooted trench of postmodernism and finds out the faults taken out by the author and critic bell Hooks. It has also taken into account the potential factors that have been flashed out by the most famous movement of the twentieth century. In order to be more tangible into its philosophy, postmodernism must include the ‘voice’ of powerless and weak to be just and accurate in its understanding of the concept. The Black experiences and observations regarding their identity, race and gender equality are left without any proper redressal. Consequently, the postmodernism need a new and fresh turn from its old and conventional underpinning for the acceptance of all the academia. Till the time this is done it will continue to raise questions and apprehensions about its inherent structure and flaws which it entails and had been continued to perpetuate it with full conviction
