Draft conditions of peace with bourgeois nationalist
Nebojša Milikić
The work presents some main preconditions for explaining socialist Yugoslavia to a bourgeois nationalist. In order for such an enterprise to be successful a set of basic theoretical and methodological recognition are necessary. Through interpellation to bourgeois ideology a subject gets deprived of elementary knowledge about main historical and social forces that shape political reality. The instruction given in a series of user-friendly drawings helps a deprived subject to reconstitute itself in its class consciousness. After recognizing its historical and actual class position and class interest a subject undertakes action to change sides or at least desert the battle field of class struggle, thus making any type of peace at all possible or probable.
