The paradigm “modernist style – postmodern” is a key situation for the analysis in a modern science. Having gone through the set of the greatest discoveries, a science appeared to be more and more subject of postmodernist. There is a plenty of books predicting the end of a science. A vivid example is John Horgan’s book “The End of the science”. So insignificant place is occupied by the analysis of a condition of psychology, and absence of ascertaining of its decline is connected, in opinion of the author, with rather modest successes of this science and deficiency of significant opening in this field of human knowledge.

The classical science is a realization of one of leading projects of the modernist style. The concept of a modernist style substantially is connected with a principle of subjectivity, a principle of continuous updating, a principle self-relativeness, and isolation on itself. Human reason and its achievements in the form of science in a modernist style. The nature is perceived as the object resisting the learning subject. Gradually this object more and more appears as the system of the known and cognizable laws.

The science of the epoch of modernist style “has opened to people dead, passive nature, which behavior can be only compared to the behavior of the automatic device: being the programmed automatic device which strictly follows the. In this sense the dialogue with the nature instead of the promoting rapprochement of the person with the nature, has separated person and nature. The triumph of a human reason has turned sad true. The science has discredited everything what it has touched.

The problem of age was differently estimated in different times and it should be mentioned that during the times of modernist epoch age was considered as an ndicator of experience and during the epoch of postmodern it is understood not only as the factor of spiritual value but as a physical one.

The condition estrangement, loneliness, alarm is a reaction of the person experiencing a decline of modernism, unconsciously grieving on complete comprehension of life and clearly realizing a primary fragmentariness, basic dissociation of a picture of the world of the person of end XX century. This is the mark of the postmodernist period in the development of culture, science, society. Each time has postmodern – the period of disappointment in the developed system of knowledge, a picture of the world, disappointment in social system, dominating values, etc., a critical spirit concerning achievements of progress and simultaneously inability to offer a constructive output from deadlock.

On a boundary of the 70-80th of the XX-th century postmodern was the most adequate to the spirit of time expression and emotional perception of the epoch.

The psychology within the limits of the project of modernist style is devoted to the separate parts, forgetting frequently about the whole. Sometimes these parts began to be obvious shading themselves, sometimes they are replaced. The brightest part is the human consciousness, reason.

Following internal biological human nature – a unique source of the true morals and true success of the person. It is a way of self-actualization and self-realization of the person. The internal biological human nature is a specific characteristic of the mankind. Humanists replace the words “reason”, “soul” with the word “I”. “I” of the person freely makes decision, it is unique, rational, and subjective – and it is a peak of a modernist style in understanding of the person, but simultaneously humanists proclaim integrity and unity.
