Looking back at the time after the end of communism (Cuba and today's China being particular and Chavez not a communist), we basically find only three different ways of communism; the original one, the Lenino-Stalinism in the USSR, the latter one, China's Maoism, and finally the Yugoslavian one. In a sense, we could talk about Tito's third way as the only way communism worked. But what is probably meant by third way is the alternative between communism, offered by the USSR, and capitalism. Tito's way, Titoism, would be a mediator between those two. Titoism was first considered as being a very pejorative term, used by the soviets to describe Tito's way of ruling the country. But it now has a very particular meaning and has become a full theory.
