Talking to a few professional academics I know, my impression has been that postmodernism is out of fashion in academia. I was disappointed because it seems like exactly what we are missing now (and in fact I thought the abandonment of postmodernism might be a cause of our problems): A fundamental rejection of the supremacy of ideologies and absolute truths, and recognizing that at all their foundations are flawed human perceptions and self-serving assumptions. And the acceptance that yes, that includes the person in the mirror and their cherished beliefs.
