		Yugoslavia had only one political party (Communist), but it was structured like a federation of six republics, and each republic had its own party leadership.
		Croatian leadership was playing a game of balance between Slovenia and Serbia, secretly sympathizing with Slovenian achievements while openly expressing disgust with the same achievements in fear of Serbian retaliation.
		In 1989, a year before Yugoslav Communist Party federal council collapsed and the federal parliament and presidency plunged in a gridlock that would never be resolved, all republics decided that it is time to build its own nationalist states.

	The Kosovo Chronicles, by Dusan Batakovic (Part 1a)
		The national policy of the Yugoslav communists was an ideological and national negation of the establishment of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, which the Serbs saw as their own - the heir to the political traditions and democratic institutions of the Kingdom of Serbia.
		Serbian communists in whose hands was the fate of the republic made feeble and pathetic attempts in the late 70's to improve within the framework of the existing system the position of Serbs in Kosovo.
		The failure of the Serbian communists in late eighties to comprehend the extent of the international repercussions of the ethnic strife in Yugoslavia, and pretentious in the worst Titoistic manner, incapacitated an active communication of Serbia with the centers of political and economic power in the world.

	Iraqi Communist Party joins Washington's puppet administration in Baghdad (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
		But the decision of the Iraqi Communist Party (ICP) to join the Governing Council hand-picked by the Bush administration to provide a façade for its neo-colonial subjugation of the country is without precedent.
		Despite its false claims to be “socialist” and “communist”, the party was never based on the struggle for the political independence of the working class but, from the outset, sought to subordinate Iraqi workers to one or other wing of the national bourgeoisie.
		In both cases, the Stalinist parties shackled the working class to so-called progressive bourgeois leaders, bolstered their anti-imperialist credentials, curbed any independent struggle by the masses and paved the way for the most reactionary elements to reemerge and seize power.
