Može li teorija Maxa Webera objasniti boljševički i populistički nacionalizam?
Can Max Weber's Theory Explain Bolshevist And Populist Nationalism?

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article, through an analysis of Veljko Vuja~i} 's text and other pamphlets and manifestos by the Serbian political elite, was to show that the Serbian elite and the Serbian society have not got rid of their nationalist bias in explaining the events which led to the disintegration of the former Yugoslavia. They claim that the main culprit for this failure was the communist national policy and the failure to use adequate means (meaning Rankovi} 's technology of violence) in order to preserve the unity of the state. The second part of the article serves to demonstrate how Weber 's view on the politics of power does not suffice to explain away the bolshevist and the communist form of the populist Serbian nationalism. The moment when the former Yugoslav political elite split into the anticommunist and anticentralist on the one hand, and the bolshevist and the centralist on the other, there was no possibility for a compromise.
