Resumen

The paper analyses the reasons why Freemasonry could not be reactivated in 1945-47 in communist Yugoslavia, unlike in Hungary and Czechoslovakia. It gives insights into the freemasonic circles that operated in Belgrade in the 1950s and 1960s, and the activities of the Supreme Council of Yugoslavia in Exile. It also explains how the secret services of communist Yugoslavia and publicists in the 1980s used very similar explanations on Freemasonry as anti-Masonic propaganda by clerical and pro-Nazi authors in 1926–1944.
