Summary/Abstract: The main argument of this article is that the political order and structure of the ruling elites in Serbia have not undergone any fundamental changes since the toppling of the Milošević regime. This is a deplorable conclusion. However, we must not be discouraged in our future attempts to transform Serbia into a decent society. In the first part of this paper, the principal features of the Milošević regime will be described. In the second part, an overview of the present situation will be presented. Finally, in the third part, some recommendations will be given concerning the political order in Serbia.
