This ethno-culturally designed course is dealing with ethnics and regional ethno-cultural groups in Balkans. It provides their overview, religious and cultural and historical characteristic and points current issues with the aim in understanding cultural heritage forming their current ethno-cultural sovereignty. On selected examples it analyses processes of today’s revitalization of ethno-regional groups endangered by globalization, connected with post-modern ambitions to save cultural diversity. It looks at historic and current migrations, their influence on today’s difficult ethnic map of Balkans and ethno-cultural influence and consequences that can be seen mainly at the level of everyday life. It introduces students with ethnic and emic ranking attitude to the study of ethno-cultural situation. Course explains problems of ethnicity of culture, taking the difference between objectivistic and subjectivist interpretation into account.
