Explain the difference between the terms premodern, modern, and postmodern.

What will be an ideal response?


Premodern culture is the name generally given to preindustrial societies based on subsistence agriculture. Modern culture arose with the 18th-century Enlightenment and is characterized by rationality, industrialization, urbanization, and capitalism. Postmodern culture is the term many people use to describe contemporary societies that are driven by global communication technology, societies where people are exposed to media images that span place and time, allowing them to splice together cultural elements from these different times and places.
