What were the Outcomes of the Self-Managed Economy in Socialist Yugoslavia?

The chapter addresses the economic system of socialist Yugoslavia. Officially, the Yugoslav economic system since the 1950s was labeled as workers' self-management, and it seems that its role in the developments that led to the Yugoslav tragedy is still not fully understood. The specific form of socialist organization of labor and economy, the system of self- management and its structural problems, is analyzed and discussed. We detect in the system the nucleus of conflict between political and productive entities which defined the crisis of Yugoslav society. One more important component of this conflict is to be sought in the increasingly intensive relationship of those elites to the national core of decentralized society. This aporia inscribed in the system of self-management itself can be identified as one of the main reasons for the disintegration of Yugoslavia.
