Definition(s)

  • Folk culture refers to traditional, often rural, cultural production in the form of symbolic practices and cultural artifacts. In geography it is a concept, traditionally linked to the Berkeley School of cultural geography and Carl Sauer, which fell into disfavor with the rise of critical cultural geography in the 1980s.
