Romany Spatial Stabilization and Domestication

Ruža First-Dilić

Sažetak

On the basis of a questionnaire
answered in 231 households in the
SR Croatia, the author analyzes the
break with a nomadic way of life
and the spatial stabilization and
domestication of Romanies.
The research results show that the
Romanies included in the
questionnaire were spatially
stabilized (this is to a certain
extent the result of research
methodology), and over half the
households were natives in their
place of residence. Most of the
households are formed by the young
couple separating from the parent
household, with a high level of
matrilocal residence. Single-family
two-generation households are
dominant, followed by three-
-generation two-family households.
Over three quarters of the
respondents intend to remain in
their present place of residence.
The ones who wish to move would
do so together with their whole
families. From the time when the
households were formed until the
time when the questionnaire was
carried out, household members
moved out of only one third of the
households, and they moved into
only somewhat more than one tenth
of the households. In both cases the
primary reason was marriage, and
then followed economic reasons.
Almost all the households whose ,
descendents have moved away visit
each other often. Mutual help is an
exception, and when it does occur
its is more often the children who
help their parents (in money and
in food) than parents their offspring
who have moved away.
