Postmodernism is a broad intellectual and cultural movement characterised by the belief that society is no longer governed by grand narratives of history or progress, universal truths, or objective realities. Postmodern society is seen as highly pluralistic and diverse, with a multiplicity of perspectives, identities, and fragmented realities, and no single overarching ideology or "grand narrative" guiding its development or providing a unified sense of meaning. Postmodern thought often emphasises relativism, skepticism towards authority and traditional institutions, and the social construction of knowledge and reality. It highlights the role of language, power, and discourse in shaping our understanding of the world and challenges the idea of objective truth in favour of multiple, subjective interpretations.
