description | Half a century ago, the author of this paper, a recent graduate, received an
exchange scholarship from the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs for a
research visit to Belgrade on the subject of self-management and the theory
of the state. At that time, the central, and by no means merely theoretical,
problem of Yugoslavian society was how to respond to the impact of the
market on the system of self-management. In addition to the production
structure, this question also affected the relations between the republics
and the political centre of the state. Two serious crises were to be decided
by the decisive intervention of the charismatic leader, who put an
authoritarian model from another era back into force. The young scholar
observed and did not understand much, but in return became familiar with a
lively and hospitable city. Critical reflections would come in the years to
follow. |
