This study reassesses the traditional stereotype of the place of the Balkans in the model of the European family in the 19th century by providing a synthesis of the existing sources and research. The author discusses population structure, marriage and nuptiality, birth and fertility, death and mortality, family and household size and structure and the problem of the south Slav "zadruga".
