Ustavno normiranje i ostvarivanje sloboda i prava čoveka i građanina u socijalističkoj Jugoslaviji
The Constitutional Establishment of Norms and the Implementation of Freedoms and Human and Civil Rights in Socialist Yugoslavia

Summary/Abstract: All revolutions and contemporary progressive movements in the world have been proclaiming human freedoms and rights as constitutive of their ideology, politics, and programmes. Constitutional theory and practice has classified human rights and freedoms according to their essence and content: they are personal, political, and socio-economical. The constitutional and legal development of Yugoslavia since the Resolution on the establishment of the Anti-fascist Council of the National Liberation or Yugoslavia (AVNOJ) in 1942 demonstrates a permanent development of these rights modifying them with regard to the specific circumstances of the position of man and citizen m the socialist self-management system of Yugoslavia. The Yugoslav constitution now distinguishes the right to self-management, the right to work and the rights issuing from the right to work, personal rights, political freedoms, and the rights of aliens. The implementation of human liberties and rights depends primarily on the real possibilities of the society, then on the relationship between society and its institutional mechanism, and then on the will, desire, and readiness of the individual to make use of them and to put them to practice. It is doubtless that they are not being implemented m their totality according to the ideas proclaimed and to the constitutional conceptions.
