Abstract

Like the European countries, Yugoslavia was destroyed by the events of the
Second World War. The country lived through one of its worst eras, as a result of
the destruction that befell it in various aspects of life, as it included infrastructure
and economic institutions such as factories and commercial companies, as well as
service institutions such as educational and health institutions. Accordingly, the
post-war conditions forced the need to combine various efforts to address the
effects of the war on the sectors, especially the economic ones, as they are the
backbone of life. In light of this, the government, after the end of the war, carried out several
actions, most notably the issuance of many laws and legislations that contribute to
the government’s budget with funds, as well as the issuance of laws that contribute
to the development of the Yugoslav economy after the losses suffered by its
facilities during the Second World War.
