Sažetak
In the past ten years world music festivals have become increasingly important facets of Croatian music scene. Although we could observe them as aspects of social and cultural life in which the "guiless", "pleasant" and "direct" encounter with other cultures takes place through music, to look at them exclusively from that viewpoint would mean to ignore a whole series of discursive strategies, interpretive moves and representational constructs that make world music festivals events rich in social, cultural, but also profoundly political meanings. This article's aim is to explore these "non-musical" aspects of world music festivals in Croatia. By analysing the representational discourses of five world music festivals (concerts, series of concerts) ? ; ; Ethno Music Concerts of the International Folklore Festival, Ethnoambient Salona, Istra Ethno Jazz, Zagreb World Music Festival NEBO and Multikultura ? ; ; the author tries to present and interpret diverse approaches to (re)presentation, festivalisation and "translation" of world music in Croatia, as well as trace the path between the "global" model and "local" imprints/reprints of festivalisation of world music in Croatia.
