CRIMINAL LAW PROTECTION OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL ORDER OF THE SFRY

Summary/Abstract: This scientific paper analyzes the criminal law protection of the constitutional order of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY). The constitutional order of the SFRY was the foundation of the state structure and political system, and its preservation was a key task of the legal system. The paper includes a review of relevant legal provisions, including the Criminal Code of the SFRY, which prescribed a range of criminal offenses against the constitutional order, such as rebellion, sabotage, espionage, and other actions aimed at overthrowing or endangering constitutional values. The historical context and reasons for the enactment of these laws are analyzed, as well as their application in practice, including significant court cases. Special attention is given to the role of political structures and secret services in the implementation of criminal law measures. The paper also addresses the effectiveness and legal dilemmas related to criminal law protection in the then socialist system, and how these issues were resolved in the context of political changes and events that led to the breakup of the SFRY.
