Sažetak
On the basis of extensive research
into the 'traditional social
culture, the author analyzes certain
elements in the Pakrac region.
In the introduction she gives
a isurvey of the cultural and economic
past of the villages around
Pakrac, of adaption processes between
immigrants and natives, of
changes in production relations as
a foundation both for changes in
the past, and for those that are
taking place today. Profiles of the
transformation, structure and division
of the rural family, according
to available documents from
the 18th century onwards, are
analyzed depending on social and
economic conditions and legal regulations,
starting with the classical
zadrouga, through the family
community to nuclear forms
of family life. Modem forms of
the rural family are established
through a detailed study and
from documents in local archives.
They are defined Since the final
disintegration of the zadrougas in
1958, to present-day forms that
are under the influence of daily
migrants, and are similar in way
of life and structure to urban families.
Changes in wedding customs are
analyzed from the following aspects:
social and family relations,
changes in customs in general, the
social status of young people, the
scale of wedding customs (from
going to ask for the girl in marriage,
to a wedding without any
ceremony at all), social and magical
customs. The author concludes
that traditional elements have
been retained in the social culture,
whose development in the
Pakrac region lags behind that of
surrounding regions.
