Text author: Ирина Милутиновић
Impacts of different models of cultural policies on the development of publishing and literary production in the national culture were reviewed in the paper. The aim of the research was to identify the main models and results of politization of aesthetic works production in the Serbian literature. Research framework was the review of publishing production in the cultural event – Belgrade Book Fair from its establishment in 1956 to this date. The following research hypotheses are proven by appropriate scientific methodologies: 1. It is possible to identify three models of cultural policies in development of publishing, with their specific characteristics in different socio-historical periods of the recent Serbian culture. 2. The model of cultural policy in the period of self-management/socialism did not restrict development of publishing; on the contrary, the dynamics of literary art has been inversely proportional to the political limitation of freedom and rights in this period. 3. The success of democratic and market model of publishing policy does not guarantee the quality and the aesthetic value of literary works.
