Dieser Beitrag beschreibt die Annäherung an ein Forschungsfeld - die Fankultur um den FC St. Pauli. Forscher*innen der europäischen Ethnologie, so wird gezeigt, geht es nicht nur um abstrakte Phänomene, sondern um die Relevanz lebensweltlicher Wirklichkeitserfahrung. Sie nehmen dabei nicht nur intellektuell das Wissen auf, sie eignen sich zudem das körperliche Wissen an, um Einblick in die Disposition der Subjekte der Praktik zu erlangen.

This paper analyses the concept of 'Volkskultur' (folk culture) as an invention of the 20th century, using perspectives from social history and the history of knowledge. It is demonstrated how 'Volkskultur' was constituted in the space between the poles of science, cultural policy, public discourse and popular practice, and how the concept was used as a symbolic resource. First, the disciplinary discourse of German-speaking European Ethnology (which grew out of 'Volkskunde') is explored in it's interdisciplinary relations and it's historical development. Second, conceptual proposals for the empirical study of the eld of 'Volkskultur' in the present are presented. Concluding, this article argues for a praxeological approach on the actors, social usages and political implications of 'Volkskultur'. ; This paper analyses the concept of 'Volkskultur' (folk culture) as an invention of the 20th century, using perspectives from social history and the history of knowledge.
