Archival material, resulting from the work of socio-political organizations in the former Yugoslavia, according to many characteristics presents a unique fund that is now stored in the archives, founded after the collapse of the state, partly is kept by a tutor and partly is destroyed. Taking into consideration the characteristics of social and political system of Tito’s Yugoslavia, the role of Yugoslav League of Communists in it, the concept of non-alignment in foreign policy, tells us about the importance of the archival material, which are remain as a segment of the system. The states established from the disintegration of the Socialist Federative Republic of Yugoslavia defined their legal systems. As a part of the legal system is the issue of protection of the archives. It is preferable and useful to establish unique attitudes towards protecting the materials of the former Yugoslavia, especially those resulting from the work of the socio-political organizations. This is mainly because their work and the documentation show the character of the time and the territory. The Archives of Yugoslavia, which keeps records of federal organs, has a primary role in this mission. The regional archives that is those of regional and local importance, keep data, which complement the general picture. Conferences of archivists, with the theme of protection of this type of documentation will contribute to raise awareness about, to some extent, a unique fund of documents stored in the archives of different countries nowadays.
