AUTONOMNE POKRAJINE U USTAVU SFRJ IZ 1974. GODINE

Abstract

The paper examines the constitutional position of autonomous provinces in the 1974 Constitution of the SFRY. This constitutional act was a turning point in regulating the state structure and position of autonomous provinces, which gained significantly greater independence and influence within the federation. Although this constitutional framework was conceived as an ambitious and progressive act, it brought numerous challenges in practice, especially in the context of political stability and interethnic relations. The legacy of the 1974 Constitution remains an important topic in the study of Yugoslav history and federalism, to which this paper is dedicated.
