Abstract


The author analyzes the problems involved in the study of folklore and popular culture in a contemporary world, transnational and hybrid, aparently different from what the object/subject of study was supposed to be. Nevertheless he argues that the type of urban legends we can gather today through Internet does not differe from the traditional materials, such as leyends, games or mores, since they talk (as they used to) about people tryng to make sense out of an always changing and mixed world.
