> “Modern society is rational and rigid, whereas postmodern society is irrational and flexible by definition. Delhi transformed into a postmodern society about two decades ago. Naturally the behavior of kids born in the postmodern era reflects the postmodern culture,” he said.
This quote confused me. I don't want to get into the freshman in a university discussion of the merits of different cultural values..
but when did Dehli become "post-modern"? Is this a phrase people use often? What types of changes happened 20 years ago? It's like this quote is hinting at a much larger social discussion, and then immediately they didn't discuss it.
This article left me completely wanting, and read like some unfinished first draft. Yes rich kids can much more easily get spoiled, and the term "spoiled" does have some literal meaning. It was almost as if the point of the article was to let me know rich people exist in India? Duh?
