Nacionalni testament kralja Aleksandra I

Branislav M. Stepanović

The author presents the political and ideological legacy of King Aleksandar I Karađorđević the Unifier. The book, published immediately after the king's death, is an attempt to preserve and transmit his political ideals to future generations.

King Alexander I was a key figure in the creation of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes in 1918, and later the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. His vision was to build a unified Yugoslav nation through a policy of "integral Yugoslavism", which sought to overcome ethnic and political divisions within the state. By introducing the January 6th dictatorship in 1929, he dissolved the parliament, banned political parties and assumed absolute power, believing that this was necessary to preserve the unity and stability of the state.

Stepanović's work describes in detail the king's internal struggle, his motives and disappointments, especially in relation to the failure of the policy of Yugoslav unity. The book also presents the king as a tragic figure, whose death in an assassination in Marseille in 1934 symbolically marked the end of an era and the beginning of new challenges for Yugoslavia.

The National Testament of King Alexander I is not only a biography but also a political manifesto that provides insight into the complex processes of building a modern Yugoslav state and the dilemmas it faced.
