Key-words: FLUXCHAOS Postmodernism has privileged variety and diversity

Postmodernism began as a social philosophy which rejected or revised the principles of Modernism New vision of position of man in society and in the world Postmodernism is a reaction to Modernism

Modernism Einstein’s relative theory One single Truth One system of signs Essentiality Elitist Rigid separation between high culture and low culture Plot Paranoia

Postmodernism Quantum theory and chaos theory It does not believe in one single Truth It does not believe in one system of signs Importance of communication Eclectic (in style and ideas) Acceptance of differences Labyrinth -Fragmentation -Incoherence -Chaos Are celebrated
