Hi Jim,
Agree, agree, and agree. I think it is helpful to look back at what
influenced the pomo I saw developing during the 1990s:
What about the postmodern texts:
Paige: Coffee and Power
Castells: The Power of Identity and others in the series
Held & et al: Global Transformations
Geertz: The Interpretation of Cultures
And don't forget Foucault, Deleuze, Kristeva, Lacan, Hillman and Hegel.
Ha. Ha. Only it doesn't look I will be getting any pomo anytime soon except
what I can get out of Harvey and Baudrillard laying around the house.
Out.

I think you are right, but understand that pomo is not a philosophy. It is
a way of analyzing theory, methods, almost anything that uses language and
metaphor. At its base it points out misnomers and illogical arguments. It
is dialectical criticism of theory. It is a lot more, but I am hoping
