Nova etnografija
“Nova etnografija” is perceived as a book series for the Institute of Ethnology and Folklore Research, whose primary purpose is the production of quality Masters and Doctoral works on different themes in the disciplines of ethnology, anthropology, ethnography and folklore studies. For the moment, a small number of publications have been produced on wide variety of themes related to the ones that the staff at the Institute are engaged in, which as well follow the most up to date trends in world academic research. The intention of the team is also to translate and publish particularly valuable academic works from abroad, which up until now have not been available in Croatian for either a professional readership or for general interest.
