Drury 336: "The idea behind radical contingency is that the values of any particular art of genre--Western concert music, Noh theater, the detective novel, etc.--are dictated by the culture's dominant ideology, are dependent on that culture's socio-politics, and are used primarily to create dividing and defining lines between groups rather than to express any basic transcendental human meaning, any intrinsic connection to human experience, perception, or psychology."
