features of post-modernism
-global = people are moving & ideas, information & money flowing across national boundaries
-media-saturated = due to huge expansion in digital & media technology
-fragmented = change more rapid, stability lost
-consumerist = people can create their identity through what they consume rather than being defined by social structures through their work
-cultural diversity & hybridity = globalisation led to spreading & mixing of cultures > numerous 'subcultures' too
