- Title
INTERNATIONAL FOLKLORE FESTIVAL OF ZAGREB: EXPERIENCES AND DILEMMAS OF APPLIED ETHNOLOGY.
- Authors
Vitez, Zorica
- Abstract
The International Folklore Festival (IFF) has been held in Zagreb since 1966. The organizers of the IFF have entrusted the conception and programme of the Festival to experts - ethnologists and folklorists. The author has been professional and artistic director of the Festival since 1992 and is also research advisor for the Institute of Ethnology and Folklore Research. Planning the IFF each year has been fraught with professional and organizational challenges. In addition to questions about the purpose of and idea behind the IFF and trying to widen it programmatically, dilemmas concerning the advantages and disadvantages of tying scientific and applied ethnology and the problem of the possible politicization of the IFF are always present.
