Titoism

Abstract

Tito has worked out a questionable compromise between Marxism- Leninism and democracy. This synthesis permits the average Yugoslav more personal freedoms than he had during the early postwar years of Tito's rule. But these new freedoms are all cautiously prepared to make certain they do not challenge ultimate Communist minority control. Many non-Yugoslav Commu nists, beset at home with the creeping sclerosis of Stalinism, cast covetous eyes at Tito's successes—foreign as well as domestic. Even Khrushchev was at tracted until the Hungarians taught him that it was Soviet domination the cap tive peoples detest, not merely Stalinism.
