Covering institutional, demo-geographical and political 'smallness', this book examines Europe's 'small ethnologies'. It discusses how 'smallness' characterizes the central structure of a nation or region and also determines its experiential horizon.
This book discusses the history and contemporary practice of studying cultures ''at home'', by examining Europe''s regional or ''small'' ethnologies of the past, present and future. With the rise of nationalism and independence in Europe, ethnologies have often played a major role in the nation-building process. The contributors to this book offer case studies of ethnologies as methodologies, showing how they can address key questions concerning everyday life in Europe. They also explore issues of European integration and the transnational dimension of culture in Europe today, and examine how regional ethnologies can play a crucial part in forming a wider ''European ethnology'' as local participants have experience of combining identities within larger regions or nations.
