POLITICAL THOUGHT OF LUKA ZRNIĆ

Luka Zrnić wrote several works, mostly scientific brochures, which are on the border between journalism and science. They do not have a special scientific contribution, but they are significant because they were created at the beginning of the 20th century. In his works on democracy, religion, state, and institutions, L. Zrnić supports modernity over tradition and conservatism. He is a legitimist and a pacifist by definition. He is not a supporter of the social democratic idea, which at that time had features of communist ideology and aspirations towards revolution and the abolition of private property. According to him, society must have a link between labor and capital. He was pessimistic about the drowning of the Serbian people in the Yugoslav state, considering that there were great historical differences between Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes.

COMMUNIST LEGAL AND POLITICAL DESTRUCTION OF KOSOVO AND METOHIJA 1944-1990.

The destruction of Kosovo and Metohija from Serbia began with some more attitudes from the Serbian social democratic movement and continued in the communist movement, which treated Kosovo as an occupied territory by the Serbian bourgeoisie. This destruction began with the Decision of the Fifth National Conference of the CPY in Zagreb in 1940, and then more specifically continued with various political and legal acts in 1944 and 1945, with the creation of autonomous provinces within Serbia. The 1974 constitution marked the beginning of the process of excluding Kosovo from Serbia, when it took over the powers of the republic and became a "constitutive element" of the Yugoslav federation. It was only at the end of the 1980s that the Serbian political leadership returned Kosovo and Metohija to Serbia as part of its legal and political structure, reducing it to autonomy.
