FOLKLORE AS A CONSTRUCT? (Folklor ako konstrukt?)

The contribution focuses on terminological as well as theoretical and methodological problems of research studies conducted at the turn of the millennia, which concerns the stating of the position of folkloristics, regarded as a constituent not only in ethnology but also in ethnomusicology, in the relation to ethnology (cultural constructs, folklore, narrativity, cultural heritage and European ethnology). The authoress pointed out that the specification of the term 'construct' from aspect of ethnology is still rather ambiguous.
