RemarksThe People's Front of Yugoslavia was renamed the Socialist Alliance of Working People of Yugoslavia in 1953

The Socialist Alliance of Working People of Yugoslavia (SSRNJ), known before 1953 as the People's Front of Yugoslavia (NFJ), was the largest and most influential mass organization in SFR Yugoslavia from August 1945 through 1990.[1] It succeeded the Unitary National Liberation Front, which gathered and politically backed anti-fascist layers of society throughout Yugoslavia since 1934. By 1990, SSRNJ's membership was thirteen million individuals, including most of the adult population of the country.[1] Together with the League of Communists of Serbia, it merged in July 1990 to form the Socialist Party of Serbia.[2]: xx
