Summary/Abstract: This contribution presents a summary of the views of the Serbian socialist left in various stages of its history on the unification of the Serbian people, which is the central idea of ​​its modern history. Rejecting the big-state ideology that aspired to the restoration of the Serbian medieval state and revenge for Kosovo, the Serbian socialist left did not even find an alternative in the state whose goal was the individual. At the basis of its programs is the idea of ​​a complex state, a federation of Balkan or South Slavic peoples, but also a collectivity (nation or class), not an individual. Announced for the first time in a public lecture in Belgrade in the nineties of the last century, the main theses of this review were verified and supplemented by the results of research carried out in the following years and shaped in the monographs of the contributors listed in Sources and literature.
