"Postmodern Culture" is an electronic academic journal founded in 1990. It is the result of an early experiment in electronic content delivery via the Internet and has succeeded in becoming a leading publication of interdisciplinary thought on cultural experience. The journal publishes commentary and criticism on a wide range of concerns including literary theory, politics, and contemporary society. Occasionally, the journal will feature special issues centered on a specific theme within the arena of postmodernism. The editor is Dr. Eyal Amiran of University of California-Irvine.

The journal is published three times a year by Johns Hopkins University in September, January, and May. Its electronic ISSN (E-ISSN) is 1053-1920.
