This paper looks at the process of change in rituals in eight western Slovakian villages after 1989 and examines how these changes have been perceived by informants. The following topics are discussed: how have traditional elements survived to this day; how is socio-economic differentiation of the community reflected in rituals; what are the reasons for and functions of revitalization; and which are the new elements introduced after 1989, and how are they perceived by the community?

Predstavljeni so novejši procesi v spreminjanju ritualov na primeru raziskave v osmih podeželskih krajih na zahodnem Slovaškem po letu 1989, s posebnim poudarkom na tem, kako jih doživljajo ljudje sami. Obravnavana so naslednja vprašanja: kako so fenomeni tradicije preživeli v tem času, kako družbeno-ekonomska diferenciacija skupnosti odseva v ritualih, kateri so razlogi in funkcije revitalizacije, kakšne so inovacije po vsebini, zgledih in v doživljanju ljudi.
