Discussion
Which among the following statement(s) is/are true in the context of Post-modernism as per R. Pring ?
i. Post-modernism is characterized by a revolt against thought control and cultural control.
ii. Post-modernism is characterized by an assertion of multiple forms of cultural expression.
iii. Post-modernism is characterized by an abandonment of certainty.
iv. Post-modernism never supports the interpretive paradigm.
Answer: D
The answer is Only i, ii and iii.
Richard Pring characterises post-modernism by a revolt against thought control and cultural control (i), an assertion of multiple forms of cultural expression (ii), and an abandonment of certainty (iii).
Statement iv is wrong: post-modernism's rejection of a single objective truth fits with the interpretive paradigm rather than opposing it, so options including iv fail.
