Montenegro is a household led by a woman
…da u svijesti žene postoji da žena ima kvalitete, da može i da je hrabra i da je organizovana da vodi kuću, a tako i državu.
…that in the consciousness of a woman there is that a woman has qualities, that she can be brave and that
she is organized to run the house, and thus the state.

The idea of COUNTRY AS HOME has been deeply controversial for feminists, as it can be also associated with destruction, violence, and can be a place where the promise of security is betrayed by family. Daves (2014:5) writes that feminism from the 1970s to the early 1990s was particularly critical of using the home as a simple positive referent. Thornton (1995:9-11, in Daves, 2014:5) explains that for women, the private world of the home has often been difficult, dangerous, or problematic, a primary site of oppression – the place where inequality exists, where women are subjected to the many forms of private power of husbands and father, and where women are expected to perform undervalued and repetitive tasks.
