N. Miklouho- Maklay” Institute of Ethnology and Anthropology Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow, Russia, and the Institute of Ethnography of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts, Belgrade, Serbia. The idea for this volume came about at the international conference Retrospectives and Perspectives of Ethnology and Anthropology, held from the 8th to the 10th of September 2017 at the open air museum “Staro selo” in Sirogojno, Serbia. The occasion for the conference was the 70th anniversary of the founding of the Institute of Ethnography SASA. The conference was attended by more than 50 scholars from 11 countries, with the main topic being the history and development of ethnology and anthropology, theories, methodologies and research topics, as well as contemporary fields of research and approaches. This edited volume is also the result of a decades long fruitful collaboration between two scientific institutes, that was formalized through the signing of the Protocol on international scientific collaboration between SASA and RAS in v c o a p 2006 the jubilee conference f the Institute of hy ASA. ide tThis s olume is omprised o f topics nd p resentations given at a o i pEthnograp f S a fAs e fromrchhe oncientific he impactmentf the findividual ethnology apersand anthropologypublished here, n the book lso representsurope. n thatan mportantense, the ublicationers sentedor ny ereutur s resea t t t develop d oa m t c isei aSoutheastern kind f Eview f theI s , researchpap methodologies,pre h ptsa andwell as enomenahe opics they eal withgy nnd isethods region hey employges withompr n teen o over the o issuesry.
