Abstract
The book presents a philosophical insight into the period beginning with 1989. The author conceives it as the interregnum whose general features were expressed by Gramsci and Badiou and creates its complex theory.
In the first period of the interregnum there appeared neoliberalism and postmodernism as dominants which started disintegrating later. Since the financial crises in 2008 neoliberalism appeals us for self-sacrifice and connects itself with a conservative value politics.
At the beginning of the new century the end of postmodernism took place and hybrid formations as populism, the Identitarian Movement, and the Islamic State begun to spread. The theory of interregnum enables us to re-evaluate Alain Badiou's work.
His key concepts concerning truth, infinity, mathematics, politics, art, and love have arisen in the interregnal period but they overcome the interregnum.
