Journal of Urban Ethnology (JUE) was founded in 1992. In the years 1995-2001 JUE was issued by the Museum of Independence in Warsaw, and in the years 2001-2010 by the Polish Society of Urban Ethnology. Since 2012 the owner of the title and its publisher is the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IAE PAS). Before it was acquired by IAE PAS, the Journal was issued in irregular intervals (altogether, only 10 issues before 2012). The new publisher increased both the scientific quality and the consistency of JUE making it an annual publication.

Journal of Urban Ethnology is open to researchers of urban culture, both in its theoretical and methodological dimensions, as well as for detailed analyses of cultural aspects of city life. On the pages of JUE we present texts focused on theoretical, methodological, analytical, comparative and material aspects. Urban ethnology/anthropology are understood broadly, not only in reference to the culture of a strictly urban environment, but also with regard to issues of the dissemination of urban lifestyle to other socio-cultural environments, including small towns and villages. JUE is an interdisciplinary periodical serving as a forum for publications by ethnologists/anthropologists of culture, culturologists, historians, sociologists, architects, urban planners and urban geographers, historians and researchers of literature, folklorists and museologists representing numerous and varied centres of learning. JUE’s sphere of influence extends over the region of Central-Eastern Europe.
