Summary/Abstract: in this article the author describes the reasons why neoliberal hegemony persists despite of numerous challenges, problems and criticisms it is facing with. according to the author, the answer lies in two groups of factors which maintain and spread the aforementioned hegemony. The first group refers to the internal characteristics of neoliberalism, i.e. neoliberal ideas, such as fluidity, adaptability and generality of neoliberal concepts and ideas. The se cond group consists of external factors, primarily the needs and interests of the international economic system, i.e. the needs and interests of the most important economies of that system. in these needs and interests we sho uld look for an explanation for the rise, development and sustainability of neoliberalism as hegemony on the international level.
