Anto Marković

politician

Anto Marković was a prominent Yugoslav politician and economist, known for his role as the last federal Prime Minister of Yugoslavia from 1989 to 1991. He was instrumental in implementing economic reforms aimed at transitioning the country towards a market economy, which included liberalizing prices and promoting privatization. His tenure was marked by significant political and economic challenges, as Yugoslavia faced increasing nationalism and instability during the lead-up to its eventual dissolution. Marković's vision for a reformed Yugoslavia included a potential path toward European integration, which, in hindsight, raises questions about what might have been had his reforms been successful and timely.
