This study examines changes in the expanding environment and functions of the instrument known as the fujara, the first element of intangible cultural heritage added to the Representative List of Slovak Intangible Cultural Heritage. The text looks at Slovak legislation on safeguarding intangible cultural heritage as well as at terminology, which, from the point of view of national protection of cultural heritage and research, in being increasingly unified. The change in the natural environment has also changed the functions of playing the fujara and passing on the fujara tradition. From the point of view of changes in the distribution of culture from the rural to urban environment, the authors paid attention to new ways of learning to play the fujara as well as the ratio of vertical, horizontal, and indirect modes of transmission. ; Cilj raziskave je pokazati na okolje in funkcije fujare (ljudska pastirska piščal) – prvega elementa nesnovne kulturne dediščine, ki je vpisan na Reprezentativni seznam nesnovne kulturne dediščine (NKD) na Slovaškem. Članek je pozoren na slovaško zakonodajo o varovanju NKD in na terminologijo, ki z vidikov državne zaščite kulturne dediščine in znanosti postaja vse bolj poenotena. Spremembe v naravnem okolju so prav tako vplivale na funkcije fujare in igranja nanjo. Glede na spremembe in razširjanje kulture iz podeželskega v mestno okolje sta avtorja pozorna na nove načine učenja igranja na fujaro in na deleže vertikalnih, horizontalnih in posrednih načinov prenašanja.

Now that nearly twenty years have passed since the collapse of the Soviet bloc there is a need to understand what has taken place since that historic date and where we are at the moment.

The authors' firsthand ethnographies from their own countries belie such a simplistic notion, revealing, as they do, the cultural, social, and historical diversity of countries of Central and Southeastern Europe
