RURAL MIGRATION AND CHANGES IN MONTENEGRIAN HOUSEHOLDS
Žarko Kalezić
Sažetak
The largest migration or »colonialization« movements from rural Montenegro
took place after the First and Second World War. Many were settled in other
regions in Yugoslavia, but mainly in Vojvodina and Kosovo. Between 1948—1971,
54.000 more inhabitants left Montenegro than settled there from other regions.
Migration from the village to city within Montenegro began with the industrial
movement after 1950. The peak was reached in 1953 and since then there has been
a continuous decline. In 1948, approximately 75% of the total population were
farmers; in 1971, only 35%. Thus, the largest decrease in the farming population in
Yugoslavia occurred in Montenegro. During this period, approximately 180.000
inhabitants left rural Montenegro.
There was also a large number of farmers who left agriculture but remained
in the village. Thus there is a significant difference between the rate of the rural
in comparison to that of the farm population in the overall population. In 1969
there was 59% rural population and 35% farmers.
The significant transformation of the rural household is parallel with the
changes of the social and economic structures in the village. Namely, new socio-
-economic household categories have appeared: part-time, non-farmers and the
aged. The farm households are still the most numerous but there is a strong tendency
for this to decrease. In the future it is expected to see more migratory structural
changes in rural Montenegro.
