Sammlungskatalog; The Rautenstrauch-Joest-Museum has been a good hundred years, the leading ethnological museums in Europe. Since 2010, it presented a new building in its innovative exhibition concept: are not the focus of new exhibition trail offer geographic Areas, but topics that provide insight into the lifestyles of people in all parts of the world. The catalog gives a representative impression of the exhibition concept and its thematic diversity. So it goes around to different facets of cultural contact to the housing and living together of generations and generations, the positioning of the individual in the community by means of clothing and jewelry to religious world views and concepts of God, dealing with death and the ancestors and to mask rituals.
