Sažetak
Implementing the FAIR principles for data sharing introduces new expectations for the broader academic community. These principles advocate that data should be “as open as possible, and as closed as necessary”, acknowledging that not all data requires the same level of accessibility. From the standpoint of ethnologists and cultural anthropologists, however, the push for open data raises unique concerns. This paper explores these challenges, particularly those related to the distinctive nature of cognitive processes and data types within ethnology and cultural anthropology. The article presents perspectives from Croatian ethnologists and cultural anthropologists, highlighting our shared concern about safeguarding personal and sensitive information provided by interlocutors – especially when such data could be linked with published ethnographic and cultural-anthropological material.
