Abstract
Post-totalitarian situation is a result of collapse of totalitarian
system and establishment of the society of a
new type. The post-totalitarian situation reveals general
social and cultural tendencies. Hence it’s not peculiar
only for the countries, which experienced the dominion
of totalitarian regime. Totalitarian utopias, the implementation,
dominion and collapse of which characterized
20th century, are the universal projects of human’s
development raised and substantiated by the Modern
civilization. These Enlightenment projects de monstrate
the historical capacity and cultural productivity of social
constructivism, which determines the modern Western
civilization at large. Therefore collapse of different
versions of totalitarianisms - with fascist or communist
regimes - is a great lesson for the entire world.
