Podjela ekonomskih funkcija u jugoslavenskom ustavnom sistemu
The Division of the Republic's Economic Function in the Yugoslav Constitutional System of Socialist Self-Management

Summary/Abstract: This article examines the economic functions of the republic and the relations of these functions towards the economic functions of the federation on the other hand and the communes on the other. At the same time an analysis is made of the division of the economic functions between the representative and the executive organs of the republic with a view to discovering possible instances of over-stepping the constitutional and legal authority of individual organs or socio-political communities. The analysis demonstrates that in the constitution of. m this case, the Socialist Republic of Croatia, there is no constitutional and legal norm that might give occasion to an infringement of the unity of the Yugoslav market. In this matter the Constitution of Croatia insists on the equality of the economic and political conditions for all Yugoslav economic subjects to exercise an unhindered activity on its total economic and political territory. The Constitution insists also on the unity and integrity of the Yugoslav economic territory just as it insists on a symbiosis of the unity and the community of economic and political measures m the conduct of economic policy in the whole of Yugoslavia. All the essential decisions for the conduct of a consistent economic policy, the analysis shows, have been placed within the authority of the organs of the federal Constitution, where the principles of unity and community mentioned above arc exercised in a variety of ways. It is possible to conclude that the genuine problems of the economic system and of the country's economic policy reside outside the constitutional and legal regulations. Further studies will have to show to which degree individual provisions of the economic and political system are indeed founded on the Constitution.
