Covering institutional, demo-geographical and political 'smallness', this book examines Europe's 'small ethnologies'. It questions whether being 'small' might present opportunities as well as constituting a danger and explores how these 'small' ethnologies might play a key part in helping to form a wider 'European ethnology'.
