metadata.value: The article investigates informal ties among the Yugoslav party-state bureaucracy in 1945–
  1965 in order to identify their influence on the disintegration processes in Yugoslavia. Interaction
  through unofficial channels was based on solid social-cultural preconditions and played a
  significant role in the life of the country. Informal ties could be formed due to military service
  or employment, family or friendship connections, but ties of compatriot character are most
  fully represented in the sources. They were lined up on a vertical basis in accordance with the
  existing administrative-territorial division and were predominately used to achieve some kind
  of material benefits. Until the early 1950s, compatriot ties could be used both in the interests
  of the center and subordinate regions, but afterwards only the latter option remained, so they
  quickly turned into a mechanism of lobbying regional interests in central bodies. Compatriot
  ties were closely intertwined with parochialism and particularism and fueled by the mood of
  the masses. For example, there were difficulties in nominating candidates of non-local origin
  during elections. There were politicians who did not follow the requests of their compatriots,
  but presumably they were in minority. Since the 1950s, there had been a tendency to institutionally
  include compatriot ties in the governing bodies, in particular, the principle of proportional
  regional representation had been established in state and party bodies. Already in the
  early 1960s this course undermined the efficiency of the central government. To which extent
  this result was determined by the role of compatriot ties system or other factors has yet to be
  researched, but it can be stated that the system of informal ties became one of the factors in
  the disintegration of Yugoslavia.
