Abstract

China appears to be dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic far more effectively than the United States. Could this asymmetry be due to Americans’ short memories, especially of intellectual history? Dmitry Shlapentokh of Indiana University suggests that postmodernism’s most popular assumption – that objective reality does not exist and is “constructed” to benefit the elite or experts – could be at fault.
