Here's a bot of background on Djindic the extreme Marxist

......Before entering the realm of politics, Djindjic was involved with another sort of gangsterism: he was a Marxist ideologue, a devotee of the Frankfurt School of Theodor Adorno, and left Yugoslavia to study under Jurgen Habermas in Germany.

There he hung out on the fringes of the Baader-Meinhoff gang and boogied with the Red Army Fraction. Perhaps he ran into Joschka Fischer, that street-fighting Red who later rose to become Germany's Foreign Minister.

Djindjic's 1979 doctoral thesis,"Marx's Critical Theory of Society and the Problem of Foundation," posits an epistemological basis for Marx's theory that a crisis must be generated before the capitalist order is destroyed and socialism emerges triumphant.

Djindic was never Pro-western in the FR meaning of the word

So, Vooch, are you fishing for similarities like a hum warrior between Slobo the communist and Djindjich the philosopher (hence the PhD was in Marxism)???
Here's one difference; fact: Djindjic was jailed by the great communist Josip "Tito" Broz in 1974 for attempting to organise an independent student union. Slobo thrived in Tito's communism.
