* Post-scarcity is similarly an economic concept -- "scarcity" here refers to the possibility of the supply of goods running out (thus making them more expensive), whereas "post-scarcity" refers to goods whose supply ''cannot'' run out and the effect it has on its price. A good example is computer software; once it's written, it can be duplicated indefinitely at virtually no cost, and the only reason you have to pay for it is UsefulNotes/{{copyright}}.

In academia, adding the prefix "post" to a movement, theory, genre, etc is quite common. The best way to describe the meaning of "post" in this context is to see that "post" is a synonym for "beyond", building on the innovations, theories, style, etc of the original in such a way as to take it beyond what the original was, creating a new theory, genre, whatever, in the process.

However, pop culture doesn't think very highly of this use of "post", hence the rather flippant term "post-somethingism" that lends itself to the trope name.

The term really refers to a large number of loosely connected movements, including but not limited to movements with the trope used here, gets its name because its common goal was/is to move beyond of rejecting the movement 1930s-era theory of modernism. An excellent ''modernism'' -- that society and art were constantly moving in a positive direction toward a single overarching narrative. Put another way, a common definition of used by postmodernists is that postmodernism (insofar as postmodernism can be defined) is, is "an interruption of the modern mythological form."
** Andform". Postmodernism originated in recent years, there's been part out of a growing perception that such modernist ideas were a major catalyst for UsefulNotes/WorldWarII, but in the decades since, its definition has expanded and shifted so far that in some cases, it really ''is'' most accurate to define it as an excuse to not follow any rules. This in turn led to the logical endpoint of the movement towards what has been called "Post-Post Modernism", which is a rejection -- the creation of "post-postmodernism", rejecting postmodernism in the same way postmodernism is a rejection of the latter rejected modernism.

*Many developed Poststructuralism is the rejection of ''structuralism'', a broad theory (but usually applied to literature) of strictly defined cultural archetypes and binaries -- think ''Literature/TheHeroWithAThousandFaces''. Poststructuralist literary theory critiques and ultimately rejects such binary concepts as [[BlackAndWhiteMorality good versus evil]] and [[RedOniBlueOni red versus blue]], and indeed it can be expanded to rejection of wide-ranging social phenomena outside of literature like binary gender. There's a sociopolitical angle, too -- many of these archetypes are seen as imposed by one culture on another through colonialism and oppression. The exact nature of poststructuralism changes rapidly; one decade Website/TVTropes itself would be "structuralist" because everything fits into a neat (albeit absurdly expansive) directory of tropes, but another decade it would be "poststructuralist" because there are so many different variations of the same trope that everything can only truly be defined as its own thing.
* "Post-genre" is common in popular music, usually as a reinvention of a genre in a more experimental direction. The most famous examples are PostPunk, PostRock, and [[DoomMetal Post-Metal]], but there are a few outliers that don't quite fit the pattern:
** PostGrunge was the opposite phenomenon -- {{grunge}} was always experimental, and "post-grunge" moved it in a more mainstream direction. The likely catalyst was Music/KurtCobain[='=]s suicide in 1994, which left many audiences feeling disillusioned by traditional grunge's dark subject matter. The genre stagnated quickly, and by UsefulNotes/TheNewTens it was essentially CondemnedByHistory.
** Post-{{disco}} was a response to the [[DiscoSucks incredible backlash against disco of the early 1980s]]. It similarly brought the genre more "mainstream", stripping away the funk elements and introducing dub and R&B. The result had a significant impact on {{pop}} that's still felt today.
** Post-{{Britpop}} was a response to the genre's inability to break out of Britain into America, which contributed to its collapse by the late 1990s. It removed overtly British subject matter and replaced it with American indie rock. It was also more experimental, replacing an ill-defined genre with something even ''more'' nebulous.
* PostCyberpunk is an attempt to move beyond the cynicism and hopelessness of the {{Cyberpunk}} genre by showing a more optimistic future enabled by technology. Again, defining the genre by what it's not leads to a greater spectrum of works, but one common thread is that while technology ''does'' pose a threat, it can be used against itself (''e.g.'' ''Film/TheMatrix'', which notably does it with a MessianicArchetype). In other cases, {{Cyberpunk}} tropes are thoroughly {{deconstructed|Trope}} (''e.g.'' ''Literature/SnowCrash'', ''ComicBook/{{Transmetropolitan}}''.
* {{Reconstruction}} follows similar logic despite not following the naming pattern -- if it did one could call it "post-{{deconstruction}}". If deconstruction is a way of lobbying criticism at a genre, reconstruction isn't a rejection of the criticism but a means of moving beyond it, accepting it, and using the trappings of the genre more intelligently.
* Post-industrialism is a concept in economics which is actually fairly simple to grasp -- in decades past, industrialization and manufacturing was the way to become a strong economy, but since then nationsare said to have "post-industrial" economies, since found ways to become economic powerhouses with minimal industrial output by focusing on the service and finance sectors are sectors.
* Post-scarcity is similarly an economic concept -- "scarcity" here refers to the possibility of the supply of goods running out (thus making them moreimportant than expensive), whereas "post-scarcity" refers to goods whose supply ''cannot'' run out and the industrial sector.
* Similarly, certain kinds of products are considered to be Post-Scarcity goods. An excellenteffect it has on its price. A good example is computer software, which, software; once it's written, it can be infinitely duplicated indefinitely at virtually zero cost (unless copyright gets in no cost, and the way).
only reason you have to pay for it is UsefulNotes/{{copyright}}.
*"Postcolonialism" Post-colonialism is a more contentious example of this trope, example, in the sense that it seems to have taken on two distinctly different distinct meanings that are only tangentially related. The first meaning seems to refer simply refers to the state of the world after the golden "golden age of colonialism (that is, from the 15th century to the early 20th), when various colonialism" (''i.e.'' after UsefulNotes/WorldWarI), which saw huge global empires broke up. break up and countries having to flex their "soft power". The second one refers to the kinds of sociological and economic ideologies and analyses that first emerged during in the mid 20th-century, which examined mid-20th century looking back on colonialism, this time not focused on how countries maintain power as much as people starting to ask how they got it in the impact and implications of colonialism in-depth, first place. As such, this second strain is often being highly critical towards of colonialism and Occidentalism for their the suppression (and in some cases total erasure) of cultures and people outside what their sphere.
* "Post-truth" istypically defined as a tongue-in-cheek use of the Western world.
* Even thoughtrope to refer to the term was philosophy of [[IRejectYourReality not needing facts anymore]]. Although first coined in 1992, it catapulted into mainstream usage right around 2016, the term 'post-truth' has only recently (following year of the Brexit referendum and the election of UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump) catapulted UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump, an era when "fake news" and "alternative facts" abounded on the Internet.

* Poststructuralism is the critique and theory building upon and rejecting the preceding structuralism, a broad reaching methodology that applied to literary theory, amongst other fields, concerned the the defining of cultural archetypes and binaries. Literature/TheHeroWithAThousandFaces is a structuralist work for example. Poststructrulaist literary theory, amongst other things, critiques and rejects the binaries structuralism worked in ([[BlackAndWhiteMorality good vs evil]], [[RedOniBlueOni red vs blue]], all of premodern gender theory) and the colonialist tendencies of structuralist literary crtitique to label and attempt to force parts of other cultures into Western archetypes.

* "Postcolonialism" is a more contentious example of this trope, in the sense that it seems to have taken on two distinctly different meanings that are only tangentially related. The first meaning seems to refer simply to the state of the world after the golden age of colonialism (that is, from the 15th century to the early 20th). The second one refers to the kinds of sociological and economic ideologies and analyses that first emerged during the mid 20th-century, which examined the impact and implications of colonialism in-depth, often being highly critical towards colonialism and Occidentalism for their suppression (and in some cases total erasure) of cultures and people outside what is typically defined as the Western world.
