The Everyday Life and Lifestyle of the Rural Youth
Milena Dragičević-Šešić
Sažetak
The rural youth, regardless of whether they
are students, workers or farmers,
necessarily have a lifestyle different from
that of the urban youth. There are many
reasons for this. In the first place, through
their work in the home, on the field or in the
factory the rural youth contribute to the
total income of the household. They are
conscious of how difficult it is to make that
income, of needs for investment in the
farm, and therefore their demands for
spending are more modest. This does not
mean that their life has not changed in
comparison with the life of their parents'
generation. They bring new “urban"
elements both into life and work. But
compared with the urban youth, they are
still more conservative in their values,
professional and social aspirations, family
relations and so on. The rural youth
oppose tradition but also the urban model
of living which they find unfamiliar, different
and foreign. They are building up their own
model of a specific "mosaic culture"
combined of elements of the traditional,
elite, urban-commercial and new rural
culture.
