Važnost i granica kategorije posebnosti za modernu političku teoriju
The Relevance and Limits of the Category of Particularity in Modern Political Theory

Summary/Abstract: The author suggests that J. Mirić's book The System and the Crisis presents two incompatible tendencies as acting against the disintegration processes in Yugoslav society. On the one hand, Mirić sees a possibility for resolving the crisis in the establishment of a strong political body representing the identity of the citizen as a citizen, while, on the other hand, insisting on the system of socialist self-management as the social being integrated by labour and on labour. These, however, are two incompatible tendencies. The first requires, namely, measures known from the history of the more recent democracies, such as division of power, a specific type of electoral system and the intensification of party life. The other road, not much tested as yet, is still seeking the elementary confirmation of its existence. A purely theoretical justification of the second model cannot be provided; it needs a real chance to prove its viability.
