The article tracks down the culture patterns and procedures such as de-centralization, anti-essentialism, discoursive heterogeneity in their relation to the contemporary power. A critical and subversive drive has been pinned on these postmodern patterns by a full range of theoreticians. Author strives to address the relation in the opposite way showing the power absorption of the patterns. Far from being subversive, postmodernism has created a new modus of legitimization which has – startlingly - been put forward at the most in the contemporary Russia. Power, then, changes by dissolving the last universalistic discourses as human rights agenda or multi-culturalism and adopts the postmodern strategy of the discoursive switch without a stabilized ideology. There appears the power in a pure form which calls out for a different kind of criticism than postmodern theory has deployed.
