Folk Life: Journal of Ethnological Studies is a journal devoted to the study of all aspects of traditional ways of life in Great Britain and Ireland. The journal publishes original, high quality, peer-reviewed research in the form of unsolicited articles, solicited papers (which are usually selected from those read at the Society's annual conference) and of members' papers (which are usually short reports of work in progress). Work published in Folk Life may include, for example, papers dealing with the traditional ways of life of other countries and regions, which may be compared to or contrasted with those of Great Britain and Ireland. The journal may also include appropriate work on museology related to traditional ways of life, on cultural heritage and tourism, and on the history and development of the study of ethnology.This fascinating, interdisciplinary subject is important from a historical perspective, but it is also highly relevant to current debate on sustainability, globalisation, migrations of people and cultural identity. The journal is committed to multidisciplinary approaches, and wishes to foster international approaches and debate. It deals with all forms of both material and expressive culture, engages in current theoretical debate and provides a forum for innovative museological thinking. Folk Life aims to provide a robust selection of book reviews, which assists in the achievement of the aims of the Society for Folk Life Studies.
