Summary/Abstract: This paper represents a short overview of development of class analysis in the work of Professor Mladen Lazic. The opening chapter is devoted to the description of the main contours of the debates which took place in the academic community regarding the usability and heuristic richness of the theoretical and conceptual framework of class analysis approach to the way in which modern societies are structured. The overview of the author’s class analysis approach begins with the study Waiting for Capitalism, in which it appears in its most complete and most mature form. The developing line of Lazic’s class analysis has been divided into three stages: the use of class analysis in examination of the structuring of socialist societies; the analysis of the transitional society of Serbia; and finally, the use of class approach in analysis of contemporary capitalist Serbia.
