Interspecies relations, body politics, and heritage are just a few of the themes treated in the articles in this year's volume of Ethnologia Scandinavica. This is, of course, only a fraction of the subjects being investigated by researchers in ethnology and folkloristics right now.

The 27 reviews of books and dissertations make the picture somewhat clearer. In this 54th volume of Ethnologia Scandinavica you can read about ethnological and folkloristic perspectives on topics such as dancing, refugees, meteorology, memory, nuclear families, shopping, grandmothers, sex scandals, and ice.
