🚀 BECOME A POSTMODERNIST: 100 STEP Course 🎓

Course Headline: Practical Philosophy: Living in a Postmodern Society

Welcome to a journey of self-discovery and societal navigation, where philosophy meets practicality. In this course, we embark on a transformative experience to become postmodernists—not just in thought, but in practice. 🧐✨

Course Description:

Postmodernism isn't just an academic discussion; it's a way of life that requires us to engage critically with the world around us. Drawing from Aristotle's division of sciences into theoretical, practical, and productive, this course delves into the realm of the practical. Here, we explore the nuances of practical wisdom (phronesis), household management (oikonomia), and politics, all of which are integral to understanding and practicing postmodern philosophy.

As Halder (2005) points out, practical philosophy is a broad field that includes ethics, social philosophy, aesthetics, poetics, and the philosophy of technology. These disciplines are not just theoretical frameworks but are about engaging with the world actively and creatively.

In this course, we will:

• Explore the Foundations of postmodern thought and its significance in today's society.
• Analyze Key Concepts that underpin postmodern philosophy, such as the critique of grand narratives, the deconstruction of texts, and the understanding of power structures.
