Sažetak
Croatian ethnology has dedicated a significant part of its history to research of traditional culture in rural areas. The methodological and epistemological features of cultural history oriented research have also determined the type of knowledge that we, even today, use when dealing with some aspects of Croatian traditional culture, for example. Following the change of the paradigm, which includes (self-)reflexivity as a significant parameter of good ethnography, the research has increasingly shifted from rural and traditional culture to cities and everyday culture. However, today it is evident that the villages and people who inhabit them are rarely in the focus of Croatian ethnologists' interests. In this presentation we will refer to the importance of ethnological perspective in researching villages, especially the villages whose “exoticism” - in terms of old anthropological criteria for selection of research sites and locations - arises from their continuing and almost inevitable disappearance. Even some social scientists have drawn attention to the issue of depopulation of rural areas in Croatia and probability of their revitalization (e.g. Klemenčić 1990, Nejašmić 1991, Turk, Šimunić and Živić 2016), while the problems concerning life itself and survival strategies of the people in these areas have mostly remained outside the focus. So, by using the results of our preliminary field research in Žumberak area and relevant archive and photo documentation, our presentation will center on the sense of loneliness, solitude and (in)security of those who stay in the villages, as well as the question of human empathy and solidarity in general.
