English term or phrase: modernist/modernity/modern
If there is one thing we don’t believe in any more is in the possibility of being emancipated, freed from all attachments, blissfully unaware of the consequences of your actions. End of the modernist parenthesis. Beginning (or return) to what? The second modernity? What would be the word if ‘we have never been modern’? ‘Reflexive modernisation’ as Ulrich Beck has proposed!? The non modern? Why not ‘terrestrial’, ‘mortal’, ‘anthropological’, ‘ordinary’? Yes, ‘ordinary’ that’s the word I prefer. By ceasing to be modern, we have become ordinary humans again.
