Summary/Abstract: This paper starts with a brief overview of ethnological (and, later, anthropological) research into cities in Yugoslavia and its successor.-states, which had definitely been established in the 1980s and 1990s in the period of late socialism ant at the beginning of the so-called transition period, Novel social and political circumstances after 1989 undoubtedly influenced ethno-anthropological research of the city, and also determined the research of street names as political symbols, which emerged as a scholarly reaction to the widespread practices of massive renaming of various public places.
