Summary: Jordan Peterson has written, “Something we cannot see protects us from something we do not understand. The thing we cannot see is culture, in its intrapsychic or internal manifestations. The thing we do not understand is the chaos that gave rise to culture. If the structure of culture is disrupted, unwittingly, chaos returns.” Postmodernism is disrupting or unraveling culture as we know it. I explain structuralism and Jacques Lacan application of it to schizophrenia, and then Fredric Jameson's application of it to late capitalism.
