AB  - This article discusses the experiences of Serbian citizens who came back to
their country of origin just before or at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic
and the introduction of the state of emergency. We analysed their motives to
return and their experiences during self-isolation. We also highlighted the
problems they encountered at the beginning of the pandemic and the impact
they had expected the pandemic would have on their social and economic
status. The paper covers their plans for mobility after the end of pandemic, as
well as potential motives for staying in Serbia. The aim is to show that even
though a large number of citizens came back to Serbia when the crisis broke
out and could not have predicted what would happen to their social and economic status in their destination countries, they still did not intend to stay in
Serbia after the end of the pandemic. The whole social system in Serbia would
need to be changed for them to decide to stay.
Discussion of the results is based on data collected at the beginning of
pandemic by researchers from the Institute of Sociological Research, one
of whom was the author of this paper. Due to the health risks related to the
coronavirus, we used a quantitative method: a questionnaire distributed
online via the Google platform. As such, the respondents were mostly young
and educated people who took part in the research because they used the
internet on a daily basis and were able to fill in the survey easily. For this
reason, the results presented in this article cannot be generalised to represent the whole population, but only the respondents of this research. The
findings are placed within a contextual framework in which the world’s
population is extremely mobile. We recognised a similarly high level of mobility among Serbian citizens, too.
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected many different aspects of life, and
so a large share of respondents decided to come back to their home country.
This was a normal coping strategy, especially for those migrants who did not
have officially recognised status in their destination country. Returnees faced
many problems when they returned to their home country; they had to self-isolate and did not know what would happen with their jobs once the pandemic
was over. They also didn’t know if they would receive an income or what would
happen with the social system, either in their home country or in their country
of emigration. Analysis of the data revealed that despite their expectations of
an economic crisis following the drastic measures introduced to suppress the
spread of the coronavirus, a large share of respondents believed that the crisis
wouldn’t have an impact on their material and social status in their destination
country. Because of that, we noted that most respondents wished to go back
to their destination country after the crisis was over. However, it’s suggested
that if we want them to stay in Serbia, then the state should introduce measures that include both economic and social reforms.
AB  - U radu se razmatraju iskustva građana Srbije koji su se vratili u zemlju neposredno pre ili u prvim danima nakon uvođenja vanrednog stanja usled izbijanja
pandemije. Analiziraju se njihovi motivi za povratak, iskustva samoizolacije – uz
isticanje problema sa kojima su se suočavali, kao i stavovi o uticaju pandemije
na njihov socioekonomski status. Predmet istraživanja su i njihovi planovi u
pogledu mobilnosti nakon pandemije, kao i motivi da ostanu u Srbiji, kada se
zdravstvena situacija stabilizuje. Pored eksplorativnog prikaza prikupljenih podataka, cilj je i ukazati na činjenicu da, iako se veliki broj građana u trenutku
krize vratio u Srbiju, i suočavao se sa brojnim neizvesnostima, oni ne očekuju
promenu sopstvenog statusa u zemlji destinacije, te stoga društveni sistem u
Srbiji mora da se promeni, kako bi ova populacija odlučila da ostane. Analiza je
zasnovana na podacima prikupljenim kvantitativnom metodom na početku
pandemije. Polazi se od kontekstualnog okvira koji podrazumeva veliku mobilnost svetskog stanovništva, uključujući građane Srbije. Pandemija je uticala na
mnoge aspekte života ove populacije, a veliki deo njih, naročito ako nisu imali
rešen boravišni i radni status u inostranstvu, vratili su se u zemlju porekla. Analiza je pokazala da, uprkos očekivanju ekonomske krize kao posledice mera
uvedenih sa ciljem sprečavanja širenja virusa COVID-19, čak dve trećine ispitanika veruje da se to neće odraziti na njihov materijalni i socijalni status i želi da
se vrati u zemlju destinacije. Mere koje bi država mogla da uvede, a koje bi
eventualno zadržale ovu populaciju, uglavnom se ogledaju u ekonomskim i
pravnim reformama.

AB  - This paper discusses intergenerational solidarity in care from the perspective of women, focusing on mothers as the main providers. It has been carried out in the context of very low fertility, negative population change, and advanced ageing in Serbia, amid conditions of strong familism. Two types of care were analysed: care of children and of elderly parents. Qualitative research was carried out in two towns and their outskirts: Belgrade and Kraljevo. The main method was a case study based on interviews and observation. The first aim was to shed light on the informal support mothers/parents receive around children: who helps them, what help they receive, and why they receive help. The results supported the authors’ initial expectations that mothers/parents rely heavily on grandparents, primarily grandmothers. The help grandparents provide is reported to be daily, extensive, and exhaustive. Mothers, however, deem that it contributes to happy and healthy ageing. Although caring for elderly people is still not widespread among respondents, they nevertheless presented their views on the issue. Again, in line with initial assumptions, care of elderly people was shown to be an indispensable part of family life. The empirical results reflect that the main explanation stems from strong solidarity based on kinship, which thus moulds both attitudes and behaviour. Elderly parents will be taken care of by their children, and this is considered natural, self-understandable, and an expression of vast gratitude. Putting elderly people into institutional care (nursing homes) is a rare choice that is only made when they cannot live on their own and take care of themselves, or if there are many elderly kin who need support.

New knowledge and technology application together with consultation with experts all around the world are available for the Motherland because diasporas social capital. They could be very important resource for its economically, cultural and social prosperity. However, it's important to know that interaction with a people with a different culture has impact to change and experience of personal identity by migrants. That requires modification of earlier understanding identity members of diaspora. Theirs identity had a core in a national identity earlier, but today it has a form of hybridity. In a meso level, respecting by Motherland perspective, that's mean that national identity doesn't main motive for diaspora investing anymore and that's important to make a new stimulating migration policy. Therefore, the goal of this paper is to point diaspora phenomena changing - change resources and influence to the Motherland. As a first, the emphasis is on transnational networks which change communication mode and relationship members of diaspora and Motherland, but they have impact to growth of social capital of migrants which could be invested in homeland potentially. These networks enable easier to acquire a knowledge and it's transfer. That is why human capital become more readily available for the Motherland. But, hybrid diaspora identity must be motive for change state diaspora policy which was based in an emotional component of national identity. They must change in way of making a more favorable structural conditions for diaspora investment which is a preconditions to attracting human and social capital of diaspora that could have a big impact to the Motherland's progress.

AB  - Srbija pripada korpusu od više od polovine zemalja sveta koje imaju veoma niske nivoe rađanja. Prema podacima popisa iz 2011, nijedna generacija žena u Srbiji (bez Kosova i Metohije), rođenih u periodu 1930-1962. nije rodila više od dvoje dece. Značajno je porastao broj žena starosti 30-34, bez dece (sa 21,2% [2002], na 30,3% [2011]). One su najčešće same, neudate i van unija, sa višim ili visokim obrazovanjem, radno aktivne, zaposlene i žive u urbanim sredinama. Kao odgovor na problem niskog rađanja, Vlada Srbije je krajem 2017. usvojila revidiranu StrateGiju podsticanja rađanja, koja ce naslanja na prethodnu Strategiju iz 2008, koju dopunjuje i dodatno razrađuje. U ovom radu se ukratko elaborira treći cilj najnovijeg dokumenta, snižavanje socio-psihološke cene rađanja, koji, uz njen drugi cilj, usklađivanje rada i roditeljstva, treba da stvori uslove da ce smanji preogtgerećenost majki/žena u roditeljstvu i domaćinstvu, i time olakša tranziciju ka višem redu rađanja. Kao empirijska podloga u ovom radu korišćeni su, pored ostalih, rezultati najnovijeg anketnog istraživanja "Kultura rađanja - reproduktivne i partnerske strategije žena u Srbiji danas" iz 2017, koje je sproveo Institut za sociološka istraživanja Filozofskog fakulteta Univerziteta u Beogradu. Rezultati su ukazali na umereno jake patrijarhalne stavove i veoma izraženu patrijarhalnu praksu u braku i roditeljstvu, odnosno na perzistirajuću normu "intenzivnog majčinstva", te odvojenih muš koženskih praksiu kritičnom momentu "ranog roditeljstva", kao i kasnije tokom porodičnog života, u okolnostima niskog kvaliteta svakodnevnog života i opšte oskudice u društvu poluperiferije. Takve norme i reproduktivne prakse, nisu, kako savremena litetatura pokazuje, u funkciji povišenog rađanja, već naprotiv, odlaganja i odustajanja od rađanja, posebno, višeg reda. Zato ce kao politički odgovor predlaže aktivnije uključivanje muškaraca u roditeljstvo, uvođenjem kvote za očeve u trajanju od dve sedmice, plaćenog odsustva. Ova mera trebalo bi da bude praćena širom, društvenom promocijom očinstva, posebno u poslovnoj sferi, kod poslodavaca i drugih zaposlenih muškaraca.
AB  - Serbia is a part of the corpus of more than a half of world populations with very low fertility. According to census from 2011, none of the generations born between 1930 and 1962 in Serbia (without Kosovo and Metohija) gave birth to more than two children. The share of childless women aged 30-34 has been on rise, from 21.2% in census 2002 up to 30.3% in census 2011. These women are most often single, living out of unions, with tertiary education, economically active, employed, living in urban settings. Government of the Republic of Serbia has adopted revised Birth Promotion Strategy by the end of 2017 as the response to the problem of low fertility. It relies on the previous Strategy from 2008, but it upgrades and further evolves the document. This paper is aimed at short elaboration of the third goal of the revised Strategy (decrease of the socio-psychological cost of childbearing). Altogether with the second one (reconciliation of work and family), it should create conditions in favour of diminishing enormous exploitation of women/mothers' resources in parenthood and in household and thus alleviate transition to further birth parities. Empirical base consists of different sources of data, most prominent one being the last fieldwork carried out in 2017 by the Institute for Sociological Research, Faculty of Philosophy in Belgrade: "Culture of Childbearing - Reproductive and Partnership Strategies of Women in Serbia today". Results have demonstrated moderate patriarchal statements among females in Serbia, altogether with quite strong patriarchal practice in partnering and parenting. It is the persistence of the ideology of "intensive motherhood" and divided female/male performance in the critical moment of "early baby stage" and later on in the course of family life in the context of low quality of everyday life and vast impoverishment at the semiperiphery. Such ideology and reproductive behaviour are not conducive to increased childbearing which is well documented in literature and research. To the contrary, they lead to postponement and giving up births eventually, especially of higher parities. As a political response we recommend i more active inclusion of males into parenthood, by, inter alia, introducing of "daddy quota" in Serbia. This short term and fully compensated paternal leave is recommended to last two weeks. The measure should be followed by vast social promotion of fatherhood, especially in business, with employers, employees and other males.

abstract = "Srbija pripada korpusu od više od polovine zemalja sveta koje imaju veoma niske nivoe rađanja. Prema podacima popisa iz 2011, nijedna generacija žena u Srbiji (bez Kosova i Metohije), rođenih u periodu 1930-1962. nije rodila više od dvoje dece. Značajno je porastao broj žena starosti 30-34, bez dece (sa 21,2% [2002], na 30,3% [2011]). One su najčešće same, neudate i van unija, sa višim ili visokim obrazovanjem, radno aktivne, zaposlene i žive u urbanim sredinama. Kao odgovor na problem niskog rađanja, Vlada Srbije je krajem 2017. usvojila revidiranu StrateGiju podsticanja rađanja, koja ce naslanja na prethodnu Strategiju iz 2008, koju dopunjuje i dodatno razrađuje. U ovom radu se ukratko elaborira treći cilj najnovijeg dokumenta, snižavanje socio-psihološke cene rađanja, koji, uz njen drugi cilj, usklađivanje rada i roditeljstva, treba da stvori uslove da ce smanji preogtgerećenost majki/žena u roditeljstvu i domaćinstvu, i time olakša tranziciju ka višem redu rađanja. Kao empirijska podloga u ovom radu korišćeni su, pored ostalih, rezultati najnovijeg anketnog istraživanja "Kultura rađanja - reproduktivne i partnerske strategije žena u Srbiji danas" iz 2017, koje je sproveo Institut za sociološka istraživanja Filozofskog fakulteta Univerziteta u Beogradu. Rezultati su ukazali na umereno jake patrijarhalne stavove i veoma izraženu patrijarhalnu praksu u braku i roditeljstvu, odnosno na perzistirajuću normu "intenzivnog majčinstva", te odvojenih muš koženskih praksiu kritičnom momentu "ranog roditeljstva", kao i kasnije tokom porodičnog života, u okolnostima niskog kvaliteta svakodnevnog života i opšte oskudice u društvu poluperiferije. Takve norme i reproduktivne prakse, nisu, kako savremena litetatura pokazuje, u funkciji povišenog rađanja, već naprotiv, odlaganja i odustajanja od rađanja, posebno, višeg reda. Zato ce kao politički odgovor predlaže aktivnije uključivanje muškaraca u roditeljstvo, uvođenjem kvote za očeve u trajanju od dve sedmice, plaćenog odsustva. Ova mera trebalo bi da bude praćena širom, društvenom promocijom očinstva, posebno u poslovnoj sferi, kod poslodavaca i drugih zaposlenih muškaraca., Serbia is a part of the corpus of more than a half of world populations with very low fertility. According to census from 2011, none of the generations born between 1930 and 1962 in Serbia (without Kosovo and Metohija) gave birth to more than two children. The share of childless women aged 30-34 has been on rise, from 21.2% in census 2002 up to 30.3% in census 2011. These women are most often single, living out of unions, with tertiary education, economically active, employed, living in urban settings. Government of the Republic of Serbia has adopted revised Birth Promotion Strategy by the end of 2017 as the response to the problem of low fertility. It relies on the previous Strategy from 2008, but it upgrades and further evolves the document. This paper is aimed at short elaboration of the third goal of the revised Strategy (decrease of the socio-psychological cost of childbearing). Altogether with the second one (reconciliation of work and family), it should create conditions in favour of diminishing enormous exploitation of women/mothers' resources in parenthood and in household and thus alleviate transition to further birth parities. Empirical base consists of different sources of data, most prominent one being the last fieldwork carried out in 2017 by the Institute for Sociological Research, Faculty of Philosophy in Belgrade: "Culture of Childbearing - Reproductive and Partnership Strategies of Women in Serbia today". Results have demonstrated moderate patriarchal statements among females in Serbia, altogether with quite strong patriarchal practice in partnering and parenting. It is the persistence of the ideology of "intensive motherhood" and divided female/male performance in the critical moment of "early baby stage" and later on in the course of family life in the context of low quality of everyday life and vast impoverishment at the semiperiphery. Such ideology and reproductive behaviour are not conducive to increased childbearing which is well documented in literature and research. To the contrary, they lead to postponement and giving up births eventually, especially of higher parities.

The aim was to conduct research into the sociodemographic characteristics of respondents who show a tendency to emigrate, and their motives and potential obstacles they face in the context of their ties to the local community in which they reside. The results confirm that these are generally young people, mostly unmarried men with a high school education. The main problems they face in their environment are economic: unemployment and economic uncertainty, while they expect emigration to provide a better quality of life and better chances for professional advancement. The results also show a high degree of ties to the local community which implies that the real migration potential will be a good deal lower.

AB  - There has been an increasing number of immigrants arriving to Serbia from various places ever since the end of the last century. It is primarily a forced displaced population from war affected territories in the 1990s who have still been living in Serbia even two decades after completion of the conflict and the relative normalization of relations. Furthermore, the number of asylum seekers and irregular migrants has also enormously increased. Since demographic forecasts and experiences of other former socialistic countries show that migration transition towards immigration is to be expected in the coming decades, especially with the formal EU membership, it seems there is a need for greater visibilisation of this phenomenon in order to be adequately prepared to face these challenges. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the geopolitical position of Serbia and lay down the long-term prospects regarding immigration as well as to shed light on the attitudes of Serbian citizens towards immigrants, especially when it comes to their influence on the local culture, customs and everyday life. The data presented and analysed were collected by field survey research carried out by the Institute for Sociological Research of the Faculty of Philosophy in Belgrade in 2013. Besides analysing attitudes of the local population concerning the influence of refugees, the authors also examine their opinion on the foreigners’ impact on culture and everyday life in local communities.
