Osnove političke ekonomije
Marin Cerovac's book is a fundamental work that analyzes economic processes through the prism of Marxist theory, with special emphasis on the law of value, relations of production and distribution, and the role of the state in the economy.
Published in 1975 by Glas Slavonije, this book was a key textbook for students of economics and social sciences in the then Yugoslavia.
Cerovac systematically analyzes the basic categories of political economy: commodity, value, labor, capital, and surplus value. He pays special attention to the development of the law of value in the conditions of a self-managing socialist society, analyzing how market mechanisms and a planned economy interpenetrate each other. The author also explores the historical development of economic doctrines, providing the reader with a broader context for understanding contemporary economic theories.
The book is structured to combine theoretical analysis with practical examples from the then Yugoslav economy, thus enabling a better understanding of complex economic relations. Cerovac emphasizes the importance of a critical approach to economic issues, encouraging the reader to think about alternative models of economic development.
The Fundamentals of Political Economy remains relevant for anyone who wants to gain a deeper understanding of fundamental economic concepts and their application in various socio-economic systems.
