Abstract: This article is dedicated to the question of interpretation of modernity. The author uses the groundwork of postmodern philosophy as a new optics and method that touch upon underpinnings of the approach towards analysis. It is also essential to examine the impact of distribution of the ideas of “French post-structuralism” upon future theories. It is demonstrated that through the prism of virologic approach, modernity is characterized by irreducible multiplicity of views contesting with each other for being distributed. At the same time, various concepts of modernity can be viewed as actualization of deconstructivist project, which defines the key vector of this research. Moreover, modernity itself is such research. The novelty consists in the fact that the question on the form of interpretation of modernity has not been previously raised within the framework of the Russian academic philosophical community. Although relevance of this question stems from such methodological and ideological transformations that took place in the late XX century. The conclusion is made that the philosophies united under “postmodern” have heuristic value, allowing to see that in fact postmodernism was related to “superficial” point of view and represented articulation of the problem – deconstructions of andro-logo-theo-teleo-anthropo-onto-phono-centrism. Post-poistmodernism, in turn, is the actualization of postmodernism as a multivariate comparative analysis, conducted by different research programs that exist as viral methods and contest with each other for being distributed.
