This article by Đuro Vujović, originally published in 1967 in the journal Istorijski zapisi, represents one of the earliest scholarly analyses of the “leftist errors” committed by the Communist Party of Yugoslavia in Montenegro during the early phase of World War II. Utilizing extensive archival research, Vujović critically examines the internal purges and ideological radicalism within the partisan movement, highlighting their impact on local communities and the broader liberation struggle. The article contributes valuable historical insight into political repression and ideological conflicts, topics often marginalized in Yugoslav historiography. Making this work openly accessible aims to foster further research, scholarly discussion, and a more nuanced understanding of Montenegro's wartime history.
