Pluralizam interesa i socijalistička demokracija
Plurality of Interests and Socialist Democracy

Summary/Abstract: The acceptance of the concept of plurality of self-management interests represents a major turning-point in the development of socialism, signifying as it does the »demolition« of one the fundamental ideas of Stalinism, the idea of political and ideological monolithism. The idea of pluralism emerges today also in countries of so-called real socialism; it mainly takes two forms: as the idea of the possibility of different ways to socialism and as the idea of the plurality of interests for different social groupings. The abandonment of Stalinist concepts in the constitution and organisation of socialist entails also the need to re-examine the traditions of bourgeois democracy, which Stalinism had not only eliminated from the political system but also from theoretical consideration. A possible approach to the analysis of the Yugoslav society is also an examination of the relationship between the norm and the realization, with the focus of attention on the relationship between the economy and politics — rather than using political practice merely to illustrate political theses.
