This text is intersection and analysis of all forms of the student resistance to regime in Serbia since 1944 until 1990. The resistance to revolutionary government was destroyed by repression in first few years after Second World War and hushed during ’50s. After second half of ’60s it culminated, particularly in years after Tito’s death. The highest intensity of active societal resistance in self-management socialism was reached in period 1966–1972 and after that 1982–1990. In the end of 60’s new postwar generations were looking for their own political direction. Radical student movements and demonstrations, turbulences in the world were spilling over and raising political temperature in the country. This tendency coincided with campaign of liberalization after 1966 (fall of Aleksandar Ranković) and relative declining authority of the state, party and security services and the death of Josip Broz Tito as the main pillar of the regime. Global crises of communism in the ’80s and increasing economic crisis in SFRY was strengthening the intensity of resistance.
