Jugoslavenski federalizam
Yugoslav Federalism

Summary/Abstract: The author examines the theoretical model of Yugoslav federalism and the reasons for the difficulties arising in the process of its implementation. He then suggests possible directions of further development. Il is his contention that the theoretical conception of Yugoslav federalism is radically new in relation to all the conceptions of federalism and confederalism up to now. The main reasons for the disturbances occurring in its implementation are not to be found in unsatisfying institutional regulations in the constitution, but in the structure of power in Yugoslav society. The crisis in the implementation of Yugoslav federalism is caused by the fact that the fundamental constitutional principle that associated workers decide about conditions, means, and results of their labour is not being implemented. This is also true of the constitutional role of the subjective forces — above all the League of Communists.
