The Journal of Folklore Research is inviting submissions that address how folklore and ethnomusicology are experienced and researched in transnational and local contexts. We especially welcome contributions in areas such as material culture studies, performance studies, narrative, online communities, and belief. JFR will also be encouraging work in existing and emerging areas of intersection with folklore studies and ethnomusicology. Theoretical interventions that connect folklore and ethnomusicology to various fields in the humanities and social sciences are of particular interest for inclusion in the journal’s future offerings. In addition, genres investigated may reflect traditional avenues of study found in folklore and ethnomusicology, as well as important contributions reflected from the perspective of the study of folklore and ethnomusicology within social movements, the visual arts, fiction, the digital humanities, and film. The important work being done by public sector folklorists, which often takes on a virtual life and form, is also very welcome in the journal.
