In this short comment I relate the core text in this issue of Ethnologia Europaea to some central themes from my own research on everyday experiences of post-Yugoslav transformations of home. Arguing for the need to complement the focus on spatiality in the study of home with an eye on temporality, I offer some thoughts on the interplay of place, hope and the state in a critical anthropology of home-making.
