- Metamodernism is the school of thought, [[philosophy]], set of values and perspectives that come after [[postmodernism]] – just as postmodernism followed modernism. In this respect, metamodernism is similar to [[Integral Theory]], by which it has been heavily influenced. However, it downplays the spiritual element of integral theory, has a more activist ethos and includes a richer model of human development. - Metamodernism aims to take the positive aspects of both modernism and postmodernism, whilst abandoning their dysfunctional aspects. Compare this to metamodernity, which aims to incorporate a wider range of earlier perspectives. - A metamodern model is not black and white. It’s **both** black **and** white. - https://deepfix.co/blog/the-metamodern-model - The idea of metamodernity is very similar to [[metamodernism]]. A key difference is that whereas [[metamodernism]] explicitly aims to incorporate the best of [[postmodernism]] and [[modernism]], metamodernity aims to also include two earlier cultural codes: the pre-modern (traditional) code, and the [[indigenous]] code. These correspond to what metamodernism calls the post-faustian and archaic cultural codes.
