Abstract

Government authorities of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia regarded KPJ as a terrorist organization and an enemy of the state whose primary aim was to undermine the foundations of the state and to introduce the dictatorship of the proletariat modeled after Soviet Russia. Initially the fear of possible revolutionary changes was one of the main motives for the actions undertaken by government authorities against the Communists. Repression was the method most often used in the hope of preventing a revolution. The authorities sought to defend the existing system by banning 'the operation and the ideas of KPJ. At the time in which KPJ was outlawed the laws prohibiting its operation were not applied consistently to the Communists. Each case was viewed separately and was largely left to the notions of the police authorities. There was no attempt to understand why communist ideas were taking root in the Kingdom since it was thought that they could have no influence on the inner development of the state. KPJ was seen as being only an exponent of the Comintern and of the foreign policy of the Soviet Union.
