Summary/Abstract: The discussion o f the contradictions inherent in the political system of socialist self-management should include the consideration of some fundamental problems. Firstly, it should provide an answer to the question of the reasons for the domination of politics over economics in Yugoslav society. Secondly, does »t imply, and to what extent, the incorporation o f elements of bourgeois society in economics and the strengthening of elements of bourgeois democracy in the political system? Thirdly, the character and the systemic functions of the state in a society based on self-management should be defined. Fourthly, the relationship should be determined between self-managing, on the one hand, and executive, administrative and political structures, on the other, in the processes of social decision-making. Fifthly, taking into account the conclusions reached by the analysis of the foregoing problems, new lines of development of the Yugoslav political system should be traced. The author indicates some aspects of the mentioned problem s and suggests some possible answers.
