Cesky Lid

Aims & Scope

Český lid / Czech Ethnological Journal is the leading peer-reviewed Czech ethnological journal, published in print and online, open-access format. Founded in 1891 and issued by the Institute of Ethnology of the Czech Academy of Sciences, the journal publishes high-quality scholarly articles in the fields of ethnology and sociocultural anthropology as well as interdisciplinary articles with a corresponding theoretical and methodological focus in the Czech, English, and Slovak languages. The journal publishes a wide range of studies, articles (peer-reviewed), reports, and news (not peer-reviewed). We welcome proposal for thematic issues and thematic sections of the journal. There are a total of 4 issues per year, published quarterly on 25 March, 25 June, 25 September, and 15 December. These dates are strictly adhered to. Articles include theoretical concepts for analyzing and interpreting empirical data; they may also reinterpret existing theories and theoretical concepts or introduce new ones. Research articles focus on describing and analyzing empirical data, taking into account the socio-historical and cultural context, but do not include interpretations based on theoretical premises. The editorial board makes the final decision on whether a manuscript will be classified as an article or a research article, based, among other things, on the recommendations of reviewers and other relevant considerations.
