A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

"The works presented here are not actually about Poles. They concern groups from around Poland that historically made up the Commonwealth of Two Nations, i. e. Lithuania and Belorus (Lukasz Smyrski, Katarzyna Waszczynska) or the Polish traditional area of research which was Siberia and Central Asia (Jaroslaw Derlicki. Wojciech Lipinski). Only two texts are about Poland. One describes the re-emerging of the Jewish community in Poland after World War II (Kamila Dabrowska), while the other discusses St Vojtech-Adalbert's patronage as a feature mythologizing the cultural community of Europe (Róza Godula). In their research on contemporary culture, Polish ethnographers and ethnologists also work in many other areas, such as the anthropology of communication, consumption, violence, values, the cultural contexts of human rights, poverty and exclusion, religious symbolism, people's attitude towards nature, visual anthropology, migrations, and the building of Internet communities. This research is accompanied by animated discussion on philosphical assumptions, on the role of the author in creating a text, on the theory of qualitative studies, understanding empiricism, and the limits of interpretation. The contributors and editors of this volume feel that it will perform its informative role if there is reception from a larger group of ethnographers, who, interested in the results of the conducted research, will want to use the Internet addresses of the ethnographic institutions in Poland .
