Summary/Abstract: Political, economic, social, environmental, health and many other crises, take an important role and make a great toll in contemporary anthropological research (in Croatia). In order to grasp and respond to different challenges, Croatian ethnography is trying to (un)make its own research field, looking both at re-inventing its topic and re-adjust its looking glasses. In order to recognize a particular temporal orientation regarding the things futural (Bryant & Knight 2019), a new epistemological stance had to be appropriated. Thinking through a number of selected manifestos and examples of contemporary research projects conducted the last decade in Croatia the presentation will try to outline possible guidelines for an ethnographic research of the future.
