The Institution #2


In my last post concerning the institution(over a month ago) I basically made the point that postmodernity inherently questions the institution. In short, those from the postmodern generation must be careful not to make a grave decision by making no decision at all. I would hate for the post modern generation to suddenly come to their senses and realize that they had, outside of their own consciousness, dismantled the institution in an unhealthy fashion.

With this in mind, we are aware that the postmodern generation has not simply made a villainous choice to attack the institution. While the institution has possibly felt threatened by a postmodern world for some time, I believe the postmodern world is only now waking up to the fact that its simple existence stands over against institutional methodology. Why? (to be continued)
