Abstract

This text critically evaluates how the idea of self-management changed and materialized in Yugoslavia, especially during the sixties and seventies. The first section presents a general overview of politics
concerning self-management and its paradoxical and contradictory unfolding, while the second section focuses on the contours of the Yugoslav cultural sphere, especially in the field of film from the late fifties to the early seventies. More concretely, the author intends to sketch the ways in which social ownership and self-management forms were inscribed in cultural infrastructure and budget planning, drawing
attention to the precarious status of cultural work.
