Abstract
Two particular and interrelated "isms" are central to these challenges. These are postmodernism and
postcoloniality. The two represent an age of intellectual curiosity but also disorder given their attempts
to redefine history and especially the place of the Third World. While one would have expected reversals
in the initial compartmentalization of the globe into Euro- America as opposed to the 'rest of us', the
contemporary state of knowledge has not helped subvert this Eurocentric image. Postmodernism and
postcolonialism are intellectual movements celebrating the latest ideology of imperialism.
