Abstract

As a matter of fact the history of political economy is the history of ownership. In history, economically more efficient and marketly more competitive forms of ownership were replacing those less efficient and less competitive, within the frames of which they had arisen. In fact, economics and politics of transition emerged due to the reason that neither state nor social ownership could endure competitiveness of private ownership. Is this the end of history of political economy, especially the political economy of socialism? It surely is not, because it was the bolshevik option of real socialism which suffered the breakdown, and the idea of social state and social justice especially in the period after the World War II experienced its full promotion. Even on these fundamentals of development of civil society, theoretical and practical achievements of economics and politics of welfare left a note and imprint to Euro-atlantic integrational processes. These theoretical bases represent common denominator which links the countries of the European Union together. In the sense of many-sided development of civil society these ideas will note both social and political movements of the twenty-first century. The entire conception and strategy of economics and politics of transition developed on such ideological bases. Development of civil society is the common goal of all countries in transition. All mighty European political powers act in this sense. That especially refers to three internationals: (1) social-democratic, (2) social-liberal, (3) Christian-democratic. The Republic of Croatia was best prepared for realization of economics and politics of transition and development of civil society. Deviating occurences as it was privatization by tycoonization and the appearance of mafia-cracy, the wrong level of stabilization, the mistakes of entire policy (especially towards Bosnia and Herzegovina) threw irretrievably all big mentioned advantages. New political atmosphere which thanks to democratic changes appeared at the beginning of 2000, gives a hope that the Republic of Croatia will also (in spite of huge damages not only due to war, but huge mistakes of economic and entire policy) move in direction of Euro-atlantic integrations and development of civil society.
