Description: History Without a Subject presents a broad-ranging discussion of the topic of postmodernity. Beginning with an analysis of how changes in the global economy are affecting the lives of ordinary American, this book suggests that the postmodern condition in this country can be likened to the balkanization of culture and society and the "Brazilianization" of politics and the economy.
