| description | The paper deals with the problem of the theoretical exploration of maternity
and motherhood as a feminist political idea and includes the overview of the
social practices and methods aimed at strengthening maternity and parenting
in modern states, emphasizing the issue of the political support and social
status of motherhood in Serbia today. The general trend in current changes is
the separation of the population policy from the social policy of family
planning, and deterioration of the social status of parenthood and
motherhood, while the formal legal framework and ideas for improving the
gender equality has been nominally improved, which contributes to their
impracticability. Recent changes and adoption of new laws dealing with family
and parenthood are fully adapted to the neoliberal transformation of Serbia,
within which the social position of women is getting worse. In response,
nationalist and patriarchal family policy are reinforced in the broader
society. The article highlights the importance of examining women’s
experiences and needs of women related to their reproduction and maternity,
as a necessary starting point for developing appropriate policies in the
wider society. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke Republike Srbije, br. 179035:
