abstract="The essay is divided into an &quot;Introduction to the Concept of Class,&quot; &quot;Data and Categorizing Classes in Yugoslavia 1945-75&quot; which treats of the working or lower classes, an approach to the ruling class, the &quot;middle classes,&quot; and women, and ends with &quot;A Hypothesis: The Involution of the Ruling Class.&quot; In the wake of Marx it concludes that a ruling class existed but was for ca. 20 years a class in statu nascendi. It concludes with &quot;An Excursus on Classophobia,&quot; analyzing writings by Kardelj, and a hypothesis on &quot;Two Yugoslav Singularities.&quot; The first or splendid plebeian singularity was the double liberatory course of the 1941-45 partizan insurrection and of the postwar attempt at a socialist democracy. The second or miserable singularity was the stasis and then the suicide of the ruling partitocracy. © 2012 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
