Overview
Heller and Feher analyse the causes of changes in the vocabulary of politics, summarizing the result in the term 'postmodern political condition'. The authors focus on a variety of processes, including the breakdown of the political narrative—identified by some as the end of ideology; the forms of morality which can operate within democratic politics today; and the role of political, social and cultural movements. All this is located within the framework of the decline of Europe as a cultural and political centre, and within the discourse of political philosophy.By examining aspects of socialism and democracy, the authors discover many causes for the change in vocabulary of present-day politics.
