Title | SIMPLY MORE BEAUTIFUL: AGENTS OF PLASTIC SURGERY IN CONTEMPORARY SERBIAN SOCIETY |
Summary | Women as cultural dupes or women as agents in control of their lives are the two most obvious choices when issue of plastic surgery is discussed. It is the issue to be raised in this research. Within Serbian society, plastic surgery is becoming recognized as a legitimate part of beauty regiment. To what extent are women in contemporary Serbia willing to go, and encouraged to go in order to fulfill the requirements of contemporary beauty standards are the questions raised here. The uniqueness of the practice, as well as practitioners, of plastic surgery in Serbia will be presented through the analysis of a popular beauty magazine “Lepota & Zdravlje” (“Beauty & Health”). |
