In the 1960s, Belgrade put great efforts into satisfying its growing city’s needs with food of industrial origin. In a condition such was that, a peasants’ market showed great vitality, surviving as one of the places of privacy and the only place where peasants were able to sell their products to buyers directly and legally. During two and a half of the post-war decades, markets passed a long road – from skepticism, through the ideas of cancellation, to acceptance and authorities’ efforts to organize their work by a number of regulations. Broadening the market network in the city infallibly followed the spatial and demographic broadening of the city. As a result, the number of Belgrade markets grew from about 15 at the beginning of the 1960s to more than 20 at the end of the 1970s. In spite of the great number of regulations on hygiene and order at markets, their work was characterized by lack of hygiene and weak respect of the authorities’ decisions. The most important city market was Kalenic market that covered 13,7% of market space in the city and where one fifth of the Belgrade markets turnover was made.
