Tramvaj, fijaker i bicikl: saobraćajna svakodnevica u okupiranom Beogradu 1941. godine

The paper discusses the changes in the Belgrade traffic system under the German occupation in 1941, an unavoidable part of everyday life that was radically transformed during the war. By reconstructing and analyzing the standard routines in the city’s traffic system, we perceive the disruption of the pre-war lifestyle and subsequent institution of newly imposed rules of conduct. Unlike the peacetime routine, when individuals could disobey or rearrange many restrictive laws without too much concern, during the occupation everyday traffic became one of the most conspicuous and unavoidable restrictive systems, a prominent symbol of obedience, loss of individuality and identity.
