Abstract
The aim of the article is to introduce certain characteristic features of life in extended families of Bunjevci in the different regions that they have inhabited since the 17<sup>th</sup> century, with a focus on interrelations of the family members in everyday organization of life and work; the role of the master and the mistress — her duties in relation to other female family members; and (in)formal partition as well as some specific transitional forms of family life from the zadruga to nuclear families. The authors observe the zadruga phenomenon as a dynamic process, depending on the internal as well as the external socio-economic factors, and provide a comparative insight into the zadruga phenomenon in two branches of the same subethnic group, which largely reflects the historical and social circumstances in which such a family lifestyle existed and was transformed. The authors pay attention to the influence of common law, which had a great importance in preserving specific features of family life, despite the strong influence of historical, socio-political, ecological and economic factors on the Bunjevci family life structure in the final stage of the existence of the zadruga.
