Summary/Abstract: Social supervision exercised by representative bodies is a specific form of social surveillance evolved as part of the Yugoslav system of socialist self-management. Social supervision is exercised in order to ensure that state agencies, bodies of social self-management, organizations in charge of affairs of public concern, and socio-political communities (communes, provinces, republics, Federation) function in a socially responsible manner. It is in this way that their work is made subject to public scrutiny. The assemblies of socio-political communities exercise their supervisory function either directly or through their agencies and other bodies. It is a specific self-management function of these assemblies, which they perform on behalf of the community as a whole in their role as the supreme organs of power and of social self-management.
