Summary/Abstract: This paper presents a general overview of agrarian reform implemented in Yugoslaviabetween 1945 and 1948. It also lays out the norms and agrarian policies on which it was based.Agrarian reform was enacted in Yugoslavia in harmony with the specific nature of the Yugoslavcontext and the lauded union of workers and peasants. This context widely differed from that of theUSSR, which is why the nationalization of arable land was not considered in Yugoslavia. In fact, atthe beginning of the reform process, private property was given stronger protections. This includedissuing deeds of ownership in the names of individuals but with certain limitations, of which the mostsignificant was a twenty-year moratorium on the alienation of property obtained from the reforms
