?:abstract
  • The close of the twentieth century, coinciding with Americans' increasing belief in an afterlife, witnessed some curious phenomena in popular and civic cultures indicating an increasing presence of the dead in everyday life. Contrary to the thesis that postmodern secular societies pay no respect to the dead, we argue that extreme individualism, capitalism, and technological innovations have together heightened the potency of transcendence drives and increased the number, visibility, and influence of postselves. Further, that the events of 9/11 affected this American immortalist zeitgeist, fueling the nation's culture wars. (xsd:string)
