Current issues
The journal Slovak Ethnology is registered in the following databases:
Emerging Sources Citation Index of Web of Science (ESCI, WoS), SCOPUS, EBSCO, ProQuest, CEEOL, The Central European Journal of Social Sciences and humanities (CEJSH), Modern Language Association (MLA), Ulrichsweb, Willingspress, Norwegian Centre for Research Data (NSD), European Science Foundation (ESF), European Reference Index for the Humanities and the Social Sciences (ERIH PLUS)
The journal’s scope is territorially oriented mainly on the Central European region. The papers published in the journal analyse social phenomena based on data obtained mainly by means of ethnographic field research methods. The journal editors prefer original articles of analytical, theoretical, or synthesising nature, contributing to current debates in social sciences and humanities. In terms of topics, the journal focuses predominantly on the research of ethnic, national, confessional, age and gender differences which characterise late modern societies; on the research of social, cultural and economic transformations of European societies in the historical context (modernisation, post-socialist transformation, European integration, globalisation); on the research of folk culture, folklore, tangible and intangible cultural heritage in the European and global context; on the reflection of discussions in current theoretical and methodological trends in social sciences and humanities; and the history of scientific thinking. Besides problem-oriented scientific studies, the journal also publishes essays, discussions, book reviews, and book essays. The journal provides space for discussions of key issues in social sciences, as well as for critical comments on the presented articles. The studies, essays, and debates undergo anonymous peer review by international experts.
