The country distanced itself from the Soviets in 1948 (cf. Cominform and Informbiro) and started to build its own way to socialism under the strong political leadership of Josip Broz Tito.

The Communist Party was renamed to the League of Communists and adopted Titoism at its congress the previous year.
