Ethnography gives the power to see the Other without having to get rid of her, his or our own otherness. You don't have to pay for it with averaging, modernization or the adoption of some external forms and languages. We remain ourselves and see each other. Cultural diversity is a great value. This book has the ambition to be a key that will help to independently open the door to understanding the diversity around us, in our everyday life. It can help to decipher many seemingly „chaotic” meanings and cultural symbols. Ethnography can be used to understand many worlds of people's lives – larger and smaller cultures.
