DOWNLOAD EBOOKFrom an historical distance, the development of the ethnological sciences in Southeast Europe - that is, of ethnology, ethnography, folklore, and cultural/ social anthropology - has been dealt with extensively for the period prior to 1990. For most Balkan countries, this was the period of socialism. This volume offers analyses of the ensuing development of the ethnological sciences in this rapidly transforming region. The book's authors are scholars involved in the turbulent processes of modernizing change. Their insightful and engaged contributions reveal that these changes were indeed changes of basic paradigms, transforming the past-oriented and often ideologically biased or exploited disciplines into modern, reflexive, and critical ones, focusing on socio-cultural aspects of Balkan societies. Apart from its portrayal of the present state of the ethnological disciplines, the book also offers a comprehensive list of all ethnological institutions, associations, and journals in Southeast Europe, promoting scholarly exchange and cooperation between all those interested in Balkan societies and cultures. (Series: Ethnologia Balkanica - Vol. 17) [Subject: Ethnology, Sociology, European Studies, Balkan Studies]

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSoutheastern Europe is often portrayed as an area plagued by endemic nationalisms, a view that seems to be confirmed by the break-up of Yugoslavia. However, a closer look shows that the nation is not the only territorial unit of identification. Regions play an important role as well, especially those that look back on traditions that differ from those of the national state. Thus, the end of socialism also brought forward regional movements which articulated opposition to the dominance of the centralized state. These developments are furthered by the integration into the European Union, whose policy of a "Europe of the Regions" demands strong regional centres for the administration of structural funds and for the empowerment of the regions. The contributions to this volume address the dynamics of regions, regionalism and regional identities in present Southeast Europe, but also look into the history of individual regions. They provide ample material for understanding the complex nature of territorial identification in this rapidly changing part of Europe.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe history of the Balkan Peninsula of the last two centuries is marked by deep transformations and upheavals. The emergence and disappearance of states, ethnic conflicts and wars, changes of political systems, economic crises, migration movements, and natural disasters are the more visible of such upheavals. Most of them have been experienced as deep crises that forced people to adapt to often radically new situations. All too often crisis management became a permanent way of life. The included essays focus on the cultures of crisis and on the reactions of societies and individuals to them: on their impact on everyday life, on peoples' strategies of coping, on the processes of adaptation, and on peoples' attitudes.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe historical upheavals in Southeast Europe since the early 20th century brought about deep transformations of people’s life courses. The concept of 'life course' enables the understanding of human lives within their socio-cultural and political contexts, stressing people’s everyday experiences and agency. The papers in this volume discuss problems such as the impact of migration and mobility on families, such as economic migration transforming traditional structures into individualistic strategies. Other papers give examples of ruptures of life worlds caused by the impact of dramatic historical events. Demonstrating the agency of actors instead of presenting them as passive victims, some authors present approaches that are innovative for the region. Apart from various forms of migration and their impact on life courses, the volume also includes contributions on the role of religion and social memory in the family.
