Peasants in the Structure of the League of Communists in Serbia
Analliza partijske statističke građe pokazuje da kontinuirano opada broj osnovnih organizacija SK SR
fakultet za fizičku kulturu Srbije u seoskim područjiima, da u nj,ima djeluje
univerziteta u novom sadu, svega 17% od ukupnog članstva SKS, te da je u
novi sad, Jugoslavija socijalnoj strukturi članstva sve manje učešće poljoprivrednika.
U odnosu na ostale socijalne kategorije
seljaci su slabije idejno-politički obrazovani
; to je jedan od razloga koji otežava da se oni
sami politički opredele i uključe u politički život
sela.
Autor smatra da uspeh agrarne politike SK zavisi
od toga kako će je prihvatiti seljačke mase, kakve
su realne mogućnosti za njeno ostvarenje i kako
će je prenositi članovi SK. Jer upravo članovi SK,
organizirani u seoske osnovne organizacije, treba
da osnovna načela ii usmjerenja agrarne politike
pretoče u neposrednu stvarnost, i to preko onih
oblika rada i orgartizovanosti koji najviše odgovaraju
konkretnoj slituacijii u pojedinom selu i regionu.
Postojeća nedovoljna organizovanost političkog
života na selu nameće potrebu da se pronađu efikasniji
metodi ii oblici političkog delovanja u osnoprimijeno
lipnja 1979. vnim organizacijama SK seoskih područja.The author analyzes the work
of the League of Communists in
the village through the
participation of peasants in basic
LCY organizations in the village
and in the social structure of the
LCY membership, and also
through the cadre policy of
acceptance and expulsion of
peasant members of the LC of
Serbia.
An analysis of Party statistics
shows that the number of basic
organizations in Serbian
villages is continuously decilining,
that they comprise only 17% of
the total LC membership, and that
there are less and less peasants
in the social structure of the
membership. In comparison with
other social categories, peasants
are not as well ideologically and
politically educated. That is one of
the reasons that makes it more
difficult for them to take up a
political attitude and become
more active in the political life of
the village.
The author considers that the
success of the LC’s agrarian
policy depends on its acceptance
by the peasantry, on actually
conditions for its realization and
on how members of the LC
explain the political idea
underlying it. It is LC members
organized into basic organizations
in the village who are to translate
the basic principles and ideas of
the agrarian policy into everyday
reality, through those forms of
work and organization that
correspond best to the existing
situation in a certain village or
region. Today’s inadequate
organization of political life in the village makes it necessary to find
more efficient methods and forms
of political activity in basic LC
organizations in villages
The Social Position of the Farm Woman
Over 90% of all the economically
active women living in the village
are active agricultural workers that
work on privately owned farms.
During the better part of the
working day the woman does her
work in the field of consumption
and in the field of production.
That is physically exhausting, and
is reflected on her role as mother.
Undeveloped tertiary activities in
rural areas, and the non-existence
of work organizations designed to
help the household and the working
farm woman, make it more
difficult for her to carry out her
household tasks and responsibilities.
Direct social action in intimate and
family matters would not be
realistic and would not contribute
to a fundamental improvement in
the farm woman\u27s position as a
wife. However, organized action to
eliminate dated customs and raise
the consciousness of the village
population concerning the equality
of women would speed up the
process of transformation of
martial and family relations.
Special progress would be achieved
by raising the general level of
eduction of the village woman. The
mass media and processes of
socialist transformation and
deagrarization of the village also
have a meaning in the struggle to
realize equality between the man
and the woman in the village.
The farm woman is the most
numerous part of the village
population, and it would be
impossible to carry out the socialist
transformation of the village
without her. However, she is not
prepared for that social role.
Society must bear in mind that as
the village becomes less agrarian, the farm woman will increasingly
become an actor in agricultural
production on the privately owned
farm. It is thus necessary to
undertake all the measures
necessary to prepare her for
modern, mechanized, intense food
production
Participation of Peasant-Communists in the Activities of Political Organizations and Institutions in Rural Areas
The article deals with an investigation which was carried out in two villages
near Belgrade in order to establish the objective position and role of peasants in
the political life of rural communities, and the prospects for the activity of peasants
members of the League of Comunists, in comparison with members of the League
of Communists from other social strata.
The investigation has shown the following:
(a) that the centres of political decisions-making are moving away from
rural areas;
(b) that the possibilities for peasants members of the League of Communists,
to exert their influence through self-managing organs have been objectively
narrowed;
(c) that peasants in general, and thus also those who are members of the
League of Communists, are inadequately represented in political institutions and
organizations in commune and villages, especially as regards key posts;
(d) that therefore peasants, members of the League of Communists, have no
proper possibility for implementing the policies and views -of their basic organiza
