Summary/Abstract: The right in Serbia during the 30-is of 20 centaury in many aspects looked up to the more developed and original right in the West. Certain specificities, however, that originated from homecountry conditions and circumstances, were emphasized. The right in Serbia underlines faith and peasantry. The cult of the village appeared as a continuation of the critique of contemporary civilization of the West that is typically tied to the city (civilization of the megalopolis).The starting points were ideas of Spengler and other right theoreticians. Parallels in the past, through which it was proved that Europe created by bourgeoisie revolutions reached a state of decadence and inevitable death, were found. This is why “rescue of exception” of Serbia from Europe was suggested. The most important political accomplishment of civil Europe is certainly the political system of democracy. The critique of real-democracy represented an introduction into affirmation of the corporative and/or estate order. All right oriented thinkers of this period refute that their ideals are fascism or Nazism and according to them corporativism and/or estate society are qualified as indigenous conceptions that originate from old Slavic community.
