Summary/Abstract: The tradition through the eye of the ethnologist today in the context of the relationship Diaspora-Metropolia (Based on materials from the Bulgarian community in Bessarabia) // The study of the so called traditional culture today, even though under the conditions of emigration, among the Diaspora, is indisputably related to the processes in the Metropolia. The reason to discuss the topic is presented by the numerous fieldwork expeditions carried out by a team from IEFSEM-BAS to the Bulgarian villages in the region of Bessarabia, located in the present Ukraine and Moldova. The clearly visible differences and anachronistic manifestations in the tradition of the Diaspora and the Metropolia have presented it as a dynamic category, not fixated in time. The focus is on the inherent quality of the culture to be preserved, transmitted and adapted, and it is not about more or less full conglomerate of its parts and elements. The tradition in the Metropolia and the Diaspora exhibits a clear dynamics and specifics as a variable and adaptable (according to the conditions in the respective environment) function of the culture to survive. The main objective is to present it as a historical and even chronologically determined process, and not so much as a manifestation of “situational” and ahistorical.
