Sharks and small fish

How did the student Miloš Pavlović, who wanted to "study" in Ćaciland, fail all the moral and life tests? Is the threat of slaughtering Vučić a staged prank or justifiable attention-grabbing? What does the regime's Sešeljism have to do with it? And why uncertainty cancels personality

The regime is bursting at the seams.

There is always the option to keep the regime in power by violence, that is, to grow from an autocracy into a complete dictatorship and even into fascism. I cannot estimate what we are closer to, but the key determinant of further development is the resistance of the majority of Serbia. I do not mean only the resistance in the streets, but the collective effort and motivation to return democracy to Serbia

"Through the research that we follow, we do not see anything happening that shows that citizens are disappointed and that abstainers want to return to abstinence. People are also determined that whenever the elections come, they will go out and vote against SNS. And this is also shown by the moments of large mobilizations in society."

Military parade: Paradero and balancero

Does Aleksandar Vučić have an army? Some advanced cadres would certainly stand behind their "commander-in-chief" at the "given moment". But what about the hull? Well, nothing - the vast majority would slack off, take sick leave, evaporate. They are only there for the money

The last one standing wins

By refusing to call early elections, the regime sends an implicit message to all who are part of the clientelistic system: if elections are persistently avoided, it is as if they have already been called – and lost. The longer that message remains unspoken but present, the weaker the clientelistic system will become

Unity, but partial

Eight months after the beginning of the biggest political crisis in Serbia, the opposition agrees that there is no more room for division. A united front is needed in the fight against the regime, but it is still not clear how to achieve it. Has the opposition found its role in the struggle for the disempowerment of the current regime?

The Belgrade debacle of the two Alexanders: The first political crisis in the Vučić era

For the first time since Vučić came to power in 2012, one can speak of a political crisis. The opposition must find a way to inflame it because otherwise Serbia will sink from the phase of autocracy into a form of dictatorship.
