Pokušaj autentičnog tumačenja i zasnivanja samoupravne demokratije
An Attempt at an Authentic Interpretation and Constitution of Self-Management Democracy

Summary/Abstract: Compared with other models of pluralism in political theory and practice, the Yugoslav concept of the plurality o f interests simultaneously widens and narrow s the scope of the pluralisation of power and politics. Solutions ranging between a tendency towards hyperpluralism and inadequate pluralisation in certain areas of social life have not always been optimal in practice. The Yugoslav model of pluralism has proved to be especially effective in dethoroning the global, or federal, state as a sovereign power. It hardly takes into account the state as the system's positive lever for intervention. Two problem s in the consideration of the organisational model of the society are singled out: the identification of the main areas and footholds o f politics and self-management democracy, and the institute of agreements and compact. A critical appraisal is made of the reduction of politics to the sphere of labour from the standpoint of the possibilities for the development of the society’s production potentials, genuine democracy and a democratic political culture.
