Postmodernism has emerged as a significant cultural, political and intellectual concept which has fundamentally altered our understanding of architecture, selfhood, knowledge formation, ethics, history, economics and politics.

* foundational essays
* critical texts
* disciplinary texts covering the visual arts and architecture, the humanities and the social sciences
