Need for Substantive Changes

Summary/Abstract: The crisis caused by the prevalent methods of conducting business and of decision-making on economic relations is reflected both at the level of the economic community as a whole and at the level of individual economic organisations. The author draw s attention to difficulties in the field of the foreign currency regime as debined by the new regulations. The Law on Foreign Currencies and Credit Relations with Foreign Countries of 1978 was heralded as an instrument for the restriction of state competence in this field of economic life in favour of competent self-managing communities of interest in the republics and autonomous provinces and in the Federation. By subsequent legislative concentration of decision-making on foreign currency within the federal institution, this establishment, which does not even have the word "self-managing" in its name, becomes the central subject. It is the forum o f decisions made by delegates from republics and autonomous provinces, rather than by the economy itself, an institution primarily concerned with the distribution, not acquisition of foreign currency. The failure to consider the authentic interests of economic organisations, especially those engaged in export, is a major cause of the difficulties and lack of substantive changes in the field of foreign currency and in general economic relations. The author proceeds to analyze some aspects of decision-making methods in organisations of associated labour, from the pooling of labour and resources to business and organisational matters and personnel policies.
