Martin Buber in the postmodern age. Publication: Society Publication Date: 05/01/1997 Author: Eisenstadt, S.N. Print this article COPYRIGHT 1997 Transaction Publishers, Inc. It is a great enigma that in this "postmodern" era so much attention has been focused on Martin Buber and his work. Why has Buber's thought become ever more central to discourses in philosophy, social science, psychiatry, and education? In contrast to current stylistic trends, Buber's language is elaborate and sometimes even pompous. And in a time when postmodern deconstructionists deny the very possibility of assigning an objective value or interpretation to any text, how are we to relate to the major aspects of Buber's work, his writings on the Bible and on Hasidism, his emphasis on dialogue and on humanity's relationship with God? Does the renewed interest in Buber's thought stem merely from curiosity about something esoteric from a different period, intriguing precisely because it is not relevant? That alone, I believe, would not explain this abiding appeal; I suggest, rather, that it is due to the feeling that Buber's approach may provide at least one answer to some of the problems raised by postmodern culture and ideas. However, the strength and uniqueness of his vision lies in the interconnection between the different areas of his work and thought; we cannot fully understand one area without considering all the others. Since it would be impossible to do  justice to all of his concerns, I shall focus here on just three related concepts that I feel are particularly relevant to today's issues: utopia, education and community. Those who have emphasized Buber's role as a religious philosopher and as a philosopher of the human situation may feel that these concepts are hardly central to his thought. Indeed, at a memorial to Buber held a few years ago in Germany, the only one of his books that was not displayed at the accompanying exhibition was Paths in Utopia. It seems to me, however, that this view is mistaken. Buber's interest in the problem of utopia goes far beyond what he wrote in Paths to Utopia and further even than what he wrote in many of his very interesting essays on community.
