%0 Journal Article %T Introduction: Dynamic Perspectives of Identity Politics %A Art Leete %J Folklore : Electronic Journal of Folklore %D 2012 %I Estonian Literary Museum, Estonian Folklore Institute %X This collection of papers is inspired by the idea of examining the concept of identity at various levels of dialogue between collective and individual agents, in different regional and social environments. At the same time, a collective collaborative and interdisciplinary approach and methodological examination has been initiated. In a way, it is an initial step in specific scholarly cooperation in the framework of the CECT. Although particular topics and conceptualframes of these articles differ a lot, in a certain way a step towards somehow shared theoretical ground has been made. %U http://folklore.ee/folklore/vol51/introduction.pdf
