This year's first issue of Journal Ethnologie (in german) has been published. This issue of the fine ethnological online-journal has its main focus on traditional medecine and carries articles on traditional healing among the Yupno of Papua-New Guinea, a medical-anthropological study on organ-transplantation, an article on Aids and migration in Tanzania, a piece on Vastuveda by our institute's Hilde Link and much more ... like an agenda of current ethnological exhibitions, books, interviews ... If you are interested in social/cultural anthropology (and if you can read german) make sure to regularly stop by at Journal Ethnologie. The staff over there copes with a tremenous task and makes sure that people outside of the academic community of social/cultural anthropology are able to understand the contents, too. (german footnote) Im Journal Ethnologie schreiben EthnologInnen und KulturwissenschaftlerInnen an deutschsprachigen Museen und Universitäten für eine an ethnologischen Themen interessierte Öffentlichkeit. Es bietet unter anderem eine Übersicht über aktuelle Ausstellungen ethnologischer Museen. Herausgegeben wird das Journal-Ethnologie vom Museum der Weltkulturen in Frankfurt am Main. So, students, tell your friends about Journal Ethnologie and you won't need to try to explain to them again and again what that is ... "Ethnologie". see our older story, too.
