This is a mini-review of the present state of affairs and problems in one of the most difficult subjects of modern high-energy physics. Basic concepts (Pomeron, hadron structure etc) and results (both experimentally verifiable and 'metaphysical') of the principal schools competing in the field will be critically analysed. Outlooks for LHC will be outlined.
