Milovan Djilas (English: /ˈdʒɪlɒs/; Serbian: Милован Ђилас, Milovan Đilas, pronounced[mîlɔʋandʑîlaːs]; 12 June 1911 – 20 April 1995) was a Yugoslav communist politician, theorist and author. He was a key figure in the Partisan movement during World War II, as well as in the post-war government. A self-identified democratic socialist,[1] Djilas became one of the best-known and most prominent dissidents in Yugoslavia and all of Eastern Europe.[2][3] During an era of several decades, he critiqued communism from the viewpoint of trying to improve it from within; after the revolutions of 1989 and the violent breakup of Yugoslavia, he critiqued it from an anti-communist viewpoint of someone whose youthful dreams had been disillusioned.
