In the template, the foundational layer is represented by the fragment: Where has credibility gotten us anyway? It seems likely that a requirement of any solution will be its ability to defeat (solve for?) the foundational layer in the narrative. It’s not currently clear how we defeat a metanarrative. I make lots of money, but I'm still depressed. It’s hard to find meaning in my life or my work. My life doesn’t feel stable even though I'm working three jobs. "What has all of your credibility gotten us anyway?" The recipient of the narrative must be allowed to fill that blank with their grievance. Because of the unique multi-layered characteristic of metamodern communication, what is left unsaid is as important as what is said. This is partly due to the deconstructive nature of the preceding epoch, postmodernism, but more so due to the choose your own adventure-ism of the structured metamodern narrative. Here goes.Īs you can see by my choice of examples, Metamodernism is uniquely susceptible to the machinations of grievance politics. So, if I’ve done this right, you should understand the components, even if you can’t explain why. I realize these statements may be polarizing, but that makes them all the more apt as an example. You don't have to agree with the statements below to benefit from the simplicity of the example and recognize the validity of the structure. You should be able to do this with any narrative. In the example below, I attempt to use you-know-whose metamodern narrative to help us identify the components.
That’s why it feels so destabilizing and will continue to do so until we develop the intellectual faculties to identify and deconstruct them in realtime. Complexity is characteristic of metamodernity.
Adding to the complexity, it may be the case that one narrative is supported or undermined by multiple meta-narratives or meta-metanarratives. Because of this, it’s often challenging to identify the meta-metanarrative. Metamodern communication characteristically relies on a multi-layered narrative.
Co to jest meta narrative update#
However, nothing in the last four weeks requires us to update what I intend to illustrate below. Even with the imbalance of competency and production value, and the overwhelming evidence on the impeachment managers' side, the outcome was preordained. Are the people around DJT still the most influential purveyors of metamodern communications? Clearly, yes, even when taking into account his team’s jaw-droppingly bad lawyering. Instead of following up my previous post with another weekly as promised, I took some time to digest and meditate on the trial's implications for this post. Jamie Raskin and the House team's performance as much as the factual basis for their respective arguments. The slick presentations, supercut videos, and tweet-sized recriminations led the media to praise Rep. Trump's second impeachment and then riveted by the House impeachment managers' performance. Like many Americans, I was first ambivalent about Donald J. In the weeks since writing Part I of Surviving Metamodernism, the world has changed.
