Coffee and Cafés in the Balkans, a discussion with Božidar Jezernik (Department of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology, University of Ljubljana),

Božidar Jezernik, Department of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology, co-organised by the Embassy of Slovenia in Poland
at the Balkan Fever Festival
In the 1955-6 academic year Dr Vilko Novak (1909-2003) became Assistant Professor. He established the concept of ethnology as a field which included the study of both European and non-European peoples. Physical anthropology and ethnology of non-European cultures was taught by Dr Božo Škerlj (1904-1961). Later, non-European ethnology was taught for a while by a visiting professor from Zagreb, Dr Milovan Gavazzi (1895-1992).
The situation in the Department changed again with the arrival in 1960 of junior lecturer Dr Vekoslav Kremenšek (b 1931). His work in the department and in Slovene ethnology as a whole has been linked to major shifts in terms of methodology, subject, and organisation. He was the first to introduce research into the areas of urban ethnology and workers’ culture. He conceived the way of life as a central subject of ethnology, as was confirmed by his leadership of a project entitled The Ethnological Topography of the Slovene Ethnic Territory. The Department thus developed into a modern pedagogical and research institution. In the 1980s three new teachers joined the faculty staff and 1990-1991 the Department was renamed the Department of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology, and various anthropological subjects again became part of the curriculum. Since the 1998-1999 academic year, ethnology and cultural anthropology has been offered as an independent course of study. Since that time several new lecturers have joined the Department. The Department’s associates carry out research work in Slovenia and abroad, and publish their work in domestic and international journals.
In 1999 the Department began to publish its own monograph collection from the field of ethnology and cultural anthropology entitled the Županič Library (14 volumes had been published by 2005), and two years later a collection of student works entitled Etno je fletno (‘Ethno Rules’). Since 2001 the Department has engaged in international student and teacher exchanges. Students have the opportunity to perform a part of their studies at over 20 partner departments all over Europe (Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Spain and Sweden).
The Department of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology offers undergraduate programmes in Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology, seven specialised Masters programmes in the Ethnology of Slovenes, the Ethnology of Non-European Countries, Ethnological Museology, Ethnological Conservation, Cultural Anthropology, Folklore, and Comparative Mythology, and guided doctoral research in ethnology and cultural anthropology. Researchers in the Department are involved in several bilateral research projects (with partners from Portugal, Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia) and in research projects from the 6th EU Framework (Eumon; Ramses) and Alpha (EU research collaboration with Latin America).
The Department has its own library.
Culture.si offers information on Slovene cultural producers, venues, festivals and support services, all in one place. It encourages international cultural exchange in the fields of arts, culture and heritage. The portal and its content is owned and funded by the Ministry of Culture, funded by the European Union Recovery and Resilience Plan and developed by Ljudmila Art and Science Laboratory.
