| Zusammenfassung: | After the break with the USSR, the Yugoslav communists began to build a different model of socialism, in which higher education was given a certain autonomy, while the Party preserved its monopoly of power. From 1952 to 1954, a broad debate (including both Communist politicians and professors) was held about the issues of new organization of universities and faculties, State's influence on managing these institutions, the election of professors, etc. In 1954, the Federal People's Assembly passed the General Universities Act. With this law, universities and faculties were given the status of legal entities and the right to adopt their statutes. They were governed by a council (in which professors and the state /with students/ each had 50% of the votes), a rector/dean and a university/faculty management. The influence of this law is still felt in the successor states of ex-Yugoslavia, and in Serbia, Croatia and North Macedonia faculties still have the status of legal entities. |
