  • Discourses of Heritagization in East-Central Europe

    Open Access•Ágnes Eitler, Bence Ament-Kovács•ARTICLE•Acta Ethnographica Hungarica•2024•References: 5

    The making of heritage is a complex contemporary process that permeates society from the normative contexts of the global as well as national level to local communities. It enters extremely diverse sites, since it is part of both rural and urban life-worlds, and it is present in the institutional space of museums as well. Cultural elements that have been detached from their former contexts and made into heritage are no less diverse. The symbolic …

    Those Germans who remained in Hungary after the Second World War faced complex political, economic, and social difficulties.

The system of applied folk arts paradoxically fostered the prominence of indivi…

  • Cottage Industry Co-Operatives with Applied Folk Art Profile in Hungary after World War II

    Open Access•Bence Ament-Kovács•ARTICLE•Acta Ethnographica Hungarica•2020•Cited by: 4•References: 3

    This study deals with the history of the Hungarian cottage industry co-operatives with applied folk art profile after World War II. Since publications in this topic concerning Hungary are scarce, this framework is dedicated to the circumstances under which these co-operatives which employed a high number of people and operated quite successfully up to the beginning of the eighties, came into existence, their operations and the scope of objects pr…
