Summary/Abstract: The article consists of three parts. In the first part the author sets the problem of his research. It is in the analysis of the economic pre-suppositions of the socialist revolution. Here the attitudes of the representatives of social-democracy have been put forward (Kautsky) and those of Lenin about possibilities for the victory of revolution in non-equalized countries. In the second part the survey of the economic development of the Tsar Russia has been put forward. The author came to the conclusion that the Tsar Russia with its economic development was sufficiently »rape« that its proletariat could realize socialist revolution. The proletariat itself was also able to solve that task. In the third part the grade of the economic degree of advance of the pre-war Yugoslavia has been analyzed. He analyses also possibilities for the victory of the socialist revolution. The author came to the conclusion that there existed fundamental economic and political pre-suppositions for the victory of the socialist revolution in the Tsar Russia and in the pre-war Yugoslavia. At the end the author considers that out of the lawfulness of the non-equalized economic, political and social development of capitalism results possibility of the so called »jumping over phases« of development. All countries do not reach the same level of development at the same time. Therefore it will be possible also in the future that particular countries individually take the socialist way of development. That relates especially to the so called »third world«.
