Tiivistelmä

A number of scholars and critics have announced the death of postmodernism. Some of them have also attempted to conceptualize the aftermath of postmodernism through introducing some successors to postmodernism. In this paper, I first outline the debates made on the death and aftermath of postmodernism and the efforts made to introduce and label its successor. I then argue that postmodernism has got old but not old-fashioned or dead, and through the passage and requirements of time, it has recycled some of its assumptions. I also introduce “hyperhybridism” as another successor to postmodernism, which synchronically lives along with its ancestor and recalibrates some of the postmodernist tenets.
