I. B. Tauris & Company The Economic Struggle for Power in Tito's Yugoslavia - Book

Explore a detailed re-assessment of Yugoslavia under Tito's rule in this essential volume from the Library of Balkan Studies. Author Vladimir Unkovski-Korica examines the major historical shifts that shaped the nation, starting from the joint Stalin-Tito offensive in 1944. This work tracks the complex progression from the Tito-Stalin split of 1948 through the market reforms of the 1950s and the eventual shift toward a non-alignment policy. Readers will gain a deep understanding of how economic decisions drove political change. The text provides a rare look at the internal power struggles involving Workers' Councils, which were empowered union bodies during the early 1950s as the party began to recede. By analyzing the impact of these periods both economically and politically, this book offers a clear view of the forces that defined the Yugoslavian state during a transformative era of the 20th century.
