Well, at least we're still at the point where we're _appending_ prefixes like 
"Post-" ... heaven help us when the pendulum swings back to the bad old days 
PREpending prefixes!!  You know, post-ontologically speaking.

Thanks Tyler - but the titling conventions are a little different for
Geography. For instance, "paradigms" are a little passé. Instead, I'd
want to use "epistemology," or if I'm really going deep, "ontology".
"Critical" still carries some weight but not likely in the sense you
are thinking and it's better to just append the prefix "Post-" to some
key word.

Like "Biogeographical ontologies: a post-paradigmatic, critical
investigation of production in the common gray squirrel population of
Norlin Quad"
