N2  - "Jean-Francois Lyotard introduced the term "postmodern" into current discussions within philosophy, politics, society and social theory. His "The postmodern condition" is seminal within the current debates over the relationship of theory and epistemology to history and political practice. Available for the first time in translation this collection of Lyotard's political writings gives new insight into the political motivation implicit in hte arguments of this classic work."--Back cover
