| Research Abstract |
Through or two years' research on "modern and post-modern in political thoughts, "we can reach the following conclusions.
(1)The concept of "post-modernism" has been used as a key concept showing contemporary transformations both in the industrial societies and in the intellectual situations. Basing on these preceding observations, we can obtain some sketches on so-called "post-modern politics".
(2)"Post-modern" is not autonomous, but, by definition, dependent on the concept of "modern". Then the continuities and the discontinuities between the two become the focus of our research. It would be possible to suppose that ambiguities and confusions concerning the debates on "post-modern" reflect unavoidably those of "modern".
(3)Seen from a comparative perspective of european countries, the United States, and Japan. the differences in the outlook of traditional and modern societies among these areas are crucial in forming and accepting "post-modern" ideas. Particularities in "post-modernism" should be explained from historical conditions where it has been situated.
(4)However, "post-modernism" is a universal and transnational phenomenon at the same time. It symbolizes the borderless character of out age most clearly in the intellectual fields.
(5)At last, based on these general views, we locate "post-modernism" in the currents of the contemporary political philosophies, as well as we find one of the origins of it in the 1920' and 30's philosophies and political thoughts.
