Sažetak

The conceptual field of cultural heritage and of development anthropology is defined by three fundamental elements: invention and admiration (mythology, ethnonationalism, regionalization, sacralisation), capitalization (fetishism, marketing, competitiveness), and protection of political and economic sources of a society. Anthropology has always been involved in the study of the dichotomy nature/society but the primary role of biology and economics in establishing and management of protected areas indicates that the ethno- and anthropocentric perspectives have been neglected or narrowed. The text offers some theoretical considerations on current economic and ecological conditions of anthropological engagement with reference to the situation in protected areas in Slovenia.
