This is a collection of papers resulting from the research project “Sociological Studies of New Properties of Serbian Society in the Early 1990s”, focusing on the topic of social change at two chief levels – the global societal one (general features of society; social system and structure; process of postsocialist transition/transformation; demographics; economy; urbanity), and on the level of family everyday life (including women’s perspective and childhood). A valuable testimony to the extremely turbulent period of the early 1990s in Serbia, on the ruptures and deep discontinuities in comparison with the preceding macro-study of the Institute (dating from 1991). Empirical evidence consists of statistical and demographic data, results of a survey conducted at the end of 1993 (partly presented in an earlier collective volume, Destruction of Society, 1994), and a survey on the family everyday and position of women, conducted in 1994 on 1000+ respondents (800 in Belgrade, 594 in other places, as well as 200 interviews – life histories).
