The influence of American academics, shaped by French postmodern philosophy in the 1980s and 1990s, is critically examined for its role in enabling corporate entities, post-truth politicians, religious extremists, and right-wing populists to challenge science and truth in today's post-truth era. H. Sidky delves into the connections between academic thought and contemporary societal issues, highlighting the implications of this philosophical legacy on current discourse and belief systems.
