TRANSITION AND REFORM. CRITICAL REVIEW OF THE EVENTS IN THE CRUCIAL TIME PERIODS
Recenzija, Prikaz
Social events in the former Yugoslavia occupied the attention of the world scientifi c and political public during the second half of the past century. That especially relates to the Cominform resolution from 1948, the rise of the self-managemnt, the establishment of of non-alignent movement, as well as to the general geopolitical position of the Tito’s Yugoslavia during the cold war.The author belongs to the economists-researchers with a very long reform tradition. He personally participated in all big crucial events.That especially concerns the (unseccessful) Hruschov’s attempt to direct his reforms to development of the self-management model in November 1962. At domestic plan, the author talks about the big socially-economic reform from 1965 and as the continuation of this reform about the long-term program of the economic stabilization during the ei-ghtieth.The explosion of the Balkan nationalism prevented the pluralism and democrati-zaion of the model of the self-managed socialism. That was the fi rst attempt of the creation of the sustainable development model. Based on the critical review of the events in the crucial time periods, the author mentions the interdependence of the reform activity of Tito, Hruschov and Gorbachov.Last two of them failed at market, but with different interdependences. Although the self-managed socialism did not survive, its positive effects are unquestionable. These effects are of two kinds. First, they stimulated reforms in other, especially Central Euro-pean countries. Second, they accelerated the collapse of the Bolshevik option and even the overthrow of the Berlin wall.
