THE FIRST FIFTY YEARS OF ETHNOLOGICAL THOUGHT AT THE INSTITUTE

Abstract

The authors present the theoretical approaches along with the practice and results of
ethnologists who have been active at the Institute over the past decades. During that
period, ethnological output constantly grew and opened up new questions, changing
both the theoretical approaches to the subject, and the subject itself. One of the trends of
those ethnological efforts defined its attitude towards history in a new way, and the other
drew nearer to epistemological research and the postmodern questionability of the very
essence of ethnological scholarship — its text and writing.
