Summary
Milovan Đilas: An analysis of the communist system
The New Class caused a sensation when it was published in the USA in 1957. It was the first time that a high-ranking communist publicly analyzed his disillusionment with the system. Đilas, a former associate of Tito who traveled from the lowest to the highest step of the hierarchical ladder and who was imprisoned because of his views, became more and more alienated from modern communism and was attracted to the idea of democratic socialism. Here, however, he sets aside the story of his personal evolution to write a detached, lucid, courageous critique of communist roots, the character of its revolutions, the rise of its powerful political bureaucracy—the "new class"—in what was supposed to be a classless society, its one-party state, its economic policies, and its tyranny over minds. At the end, he examines the essence of the conflict between the USSR and the West.
