Answer
Post-modern philosophy, the era in which Agamben's thought is largely situated, is characterized by its critique of traditional notions of truth, reality, and objectivity. It challenges grand narratives, explores the relationship between language and power, and often engages with themes of difference, identity, and alterity. Agamben's work reflects these post-modern concerns, as he examines issues such as biopolitics, sovereignty, and the state of exception.
