Modernism is the movement between the 20's and the 60's to modify traditional beliefs and behaviours. It is the idea that what went on years ago is drastically different today, in the 70's peace was advocated and voiced as the one path people should take and rejects other styles of the past. Modernism is the experimentation of different forms to improve and better the modern society,
Post modernity on the other hand, as if things weren't confusing enough, is what is happening now and why it has became this way, its also the era that we are living in today, the cynical world that believes there is no coming out of the mess we put ourselves in years ago as well as right now. Destruction will remain the same and despite attempts to maintain a healthy and positive world, the post modernity society goes against these meta narratives which loosens our understanding of the modern world. It becomes a way of justifying reality from a perspective that attempts to restore humanity. We have been monitored into not believing things and we've been tricked into thinking a certain way because we were told to do so. The use of meta narratives which as confusing as they sound are just stories we live our lives by, they create our morals to identify right and wrong.
