Simpson explores how “nativeness” is construed in the worldview of Polish Rodzimowierstwo, a polytheistic spirituality based in pre-Christian Slavic traditions which emphasizes the use of historically and ethnographically reliable sources, specifically those considered “native.” Simpson argues that an understanding of nativeness within Rodzimowierstwo often falls in concentric circles—tribal (local), national (Polish), and ethno-linguistic (Slavic)—which may be variously applied in appropriate circumstances. Nativeness may or may not find political expression in Rodzimowierstwo, and may be expressed in cultural forms such as native music or food. Rather than an inflexible category, nativeness is a discursive tool used to help filter, adapt, and repurpose the incoming changes the contemporary world offers
