Summary/Abstract: The end of the 20th century and the events which have happened and are still happening require a systematic classification of knowledge which has been accumulated about the 20th century and about what has transpired in that period, especially the crucial events which have changed the historical picture of historical time and concern Brodell’s process of long duration, such as World War II and the revolutions which took place worldwide, one of which was the Yugoslav revolution, occurring at the same time as those events of World War II which happened in the southeastern region of the Balkans. It is especially important to classify and analyze the historiographic works in Yugoslav historiography of modern history which deal with this topic and which study the trials of humanism, works dealing with the history of the Yugoslav Communist Party and the Communist Youth League of Yugoslavia, World War II and the Yugoslav revolution from 1941 to 1945. A contribution to this study was given by philosophers who explored the moral code of the Yugoslav revolution and the history of morality, participating in the debate regarding the open question of the existence or absence of ethics in the revolution.
