Culture and Post-culture (original) (raw)

Manuscript Version - The final publication is available at: www.duncker-humblot.de (Soraya Nour Sckell (Hrsg.) - Damien Ehrhardt (Hrsg.) ) Post-culture is associated with the loss of ties of cultural identity derived from globalization. The response of Western societies has been unfortunate, based on so-called multicultural policies. Instead of assuming its cosmopolitan dimension, already prefigured by Kant, communities are split into micro-communities that havetorn the western world apart. This was the result of the unresolved tension between Enlightenment and Romantic values.
