Etymology[edit]
Noun[edit]
ethnopoiesis (uncountable)
- (rare) The process of establishing an ethnic group
- 2016, Stefan Burkhardt, Norman Tradition and Transcultural Heritage:
- Ethnopoiesis is, therefore, a much more fitting term. If identities, or more precisely: ethnicities are made in a process of ethnopoiesis, they are consciously shaped, reshaped or perpetuated; they become part of tradition, if they are found they are heritage.
