Historical note
This edition of the IOV European Scientific Conference met in Minsk, Belarus in September 1997. Its published theme was “Threats to folk culture in the process of European integration.”
IOV’s retrospective presents the European conference series as a forum for researchers from different parts of Europe to study both shared cultural patterns and cultural specificity. The online index preserves the programme title and location; where no separate report is linked, this article does not claim further outcomes.
