Abstract
Perturbative QCD predicts and describes various features of multihadron production. An amazing similarity between observable hadron systems and calculable underlying parton ensembles justifies the attempts to use the language of quarks and gluons down to small momentum scales, to approach the profound problems that are commonly viewed as being entirely non-perturbative.Keywords
