      Title Intangible cultural heritage webs: Comparing national networks with digital methods
      Year 2015
    • Abstract:

      The 2003 United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Convention for the safeguard of intangible cultural heritage (ICH) is addressed to the States and assigns them several tasks. However, no State can accomplish all these tasks without mobilizing a wide network of institutions, associations, and individuals. The national ICH policies intersect, overlap, and often transform the existing relationships among these actors. This study aims at comparing several national networks (France, Italy, and Switzerland) involved in the implementation of the 2003 UNESCO Convention to highlight national trends and specificities. The analysis has employed an innovative methodology based on digital methods and is aimed at exploring the landscapes of websites dedicated to the intangible heritage. By analyzing the hyperlinking strategies of ICH actors, we have identified the specific web topology of each nation, showing which actors are central and peripheral, whether clusters or cliques are formed, and who plays the roles of authority and hub.

    • Abstract:

      Adoption of UNESCO Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2003 was definitely a milestone for the dissemination of the notion of intangible cultural heritage and the importance of its safeguarding all around the world. However, the main concepts and terms of this Convention have quite vague definitions, which lead the State members to interpret its spirit and principles from their own different point of views, depending on their diverse historical and socio-cultural backgrounds, as well as different political and economic interests. Mongolia is characterized by its unique nomadic culture and richness of its tangible and intangible expressions which have been transmitted throughout hundreds of years from generation to generations. As it recognized the fact that Mongolian traditional culture, oral and intangible heritage are strongly challenged in the face of the waves of globalization, industrialization and modernization, Mongolia ratified the Convention in 2005. Defining its development policy mainly relying on its rich natural resources, Mongolia has inscribed 9 elements in the UNESCO Lists of intangible cultural heritage so far. Although “listing” is a good practice and a tool to enhance and promote ICH elements all around the world, the “safeguarding” of ICH doesn’t limit to simply inscribe different ICH elements on the aforementioned Lists. It should be highlighted that we have to go further. While emphasizing the existing need for the Mongolians to express their cultural identity through diverse expressions of traditional nomadic culture, this paper aims to address the challenges face to the safeguarding of the intangible cultural heritage in Mongolia at the theoretical and practical levels. Through the examples, it notes the main shortcomings of the measures taken for the safeguarding of the intangible cultural heritage and offers some proposals for the future.

    • Abstract:

      This volume takes a fresh look at climate change as a threat to peace and its impacts on cultural heritage and cultural diversity. It proceeds under the assumption that the impacts of climate change on cultural heritage and cultural diversity may challenge sustainable global peace. As innovative feature, the interdisciplinary nexus between cultural heritage and peace is explicitly taken account of. Accordingly, corresponding threats on climate change and conflict on the one hand, and protection of cultural property and climate change on the other, are pulled together into one conceptual triangle. While the importance of the protection of cultural heritage in armed conflicts tends to become more and more recognized, the crucial role of cultural policy as a reconciliatory, proactive element of building and securing of sustainable peace has so far been largely underestimated. This volume brings together opinions of renowned experts in the fields of international law as well as natural sciences, engineering, humanities and social sciences. The focus lays on the legal and institutional challenges faced by national and international stakeholders, by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in particular. Moreover, it alludes to broader issues of mitigation, adaptation and resilience.

      Year 2008
    • Abstract:

      Unlike the other medinas in the Arab-Islamic world, the medina of Tripoli (capital city of Libya), has never had many historic public baths. This is probably due to a more conservative tradition where most of the Libyan women use the hamm.m only once, as part of their pre-wedding preparation and celebration. This paper presents an analysis of the three and only remaining hamm.ms of Tripoli and the way they are used and perceived today. Based on the results of a survey conducted by the authors in July 2008 (as part of an AHRC funded research project on the historic hammams of North Africa) the architectural characteristics of these historic structures are presented along with their increasing usage by a cosmopolitan population (Tunisians, Moroccans and Sudanese) living inside the medina. This paper also outlines a number of guidelines for the sustainable use and adaptation of the hamm.m within the Libyan context.

      Year 2006
    • Abstract:

      The public bath, or hammām, is a building type which has been integral to the urban fabric of Islamic cities. Whereas other building types have attracted much attention and research in the past, studies of hammām buildings have remained scarce and far apart. Based on surveys carried by the author on the historic public baths of Damascus and Fez, this paper highlights the characteristics of this building type as a sustainable urban facility which not only promotes cleanliness and health of the urban dwellers but also social interaction and a support for a rich intangible heritage. The paper also highlights the lessons that this building type provides in terms of thermal comfort, under-floor heating system, water heating and management and recycling of by- products from local small industries. The paper then discusses possible future adaptive re-use of this building type in the light of Sustainable Development Agenda.

    • Abstract:

      Since 2000, UNESCO has developed mechanisms for the listing of intangible cultural heritage, which has raised a major interest all over the world. States nominating elements have to submit videos in the candidature files in addition to written texts, which is unique to all UNESCO programmes and Conventions. Based on public and internal documents, the author analyses the role played by videos in the examination of files, establishing that it was decisive during the initial years, while later videos became relatively marginal compared to written texts, although they offer a rare opportunity to hear communities speaking about their heritage. After describing technical processing of videos and publication strategies, he reveals that videos are essential for the indexers and general public. He hopes that UNESCO evaluators will feel increasingly comfortable in fully taking into account the wealth of information provided in nomination videos which encounter an exceptional success online with more than 30 million views.

      Year 2008
    • Abstract:

      This book is assembled with a confident, if not always fully examined, assumption: namely, that the digital media – according to the announcement of the theme of the conference – have “the capacity to become a tool to capture both the tangible and intangible essence of both the cultural heritage and the society that created or used the sites” (New Heritage Conference 2006). Even the most enthusiastic promoters of the new cultural technologies admit that there are still a number of unresolved problems. The technology itself has to be developed, democratized, and made more widely accessible. Visualization alone should not be the primary goal. The profundity of the interpretation needs improving, as does the permanence of the data storage media. But since we all agree that we are at the very beginning of the process, there is faith that conferences like this one and other digital heritage initiatives will eventually overcome the existing obstacles “to capture the complexity of cultural heritage and the related social, political, and economic issues surrounding the sites or artefacts.”

    • Abstract:

      This essay, at the crossroads of historical sciences and social sciences, aims to explain how the epistemic community which had prompted the UNESCO’s recognition of the Mediterranean Diet in 2010 succeeded in turning this nutritional model into an instrument of governmentality in very diverse areas of governance. The author argues that the Mediterranean transnational community, supposedly unified by a common identity based on a shared food tradition, is at the moment primarily a political project legitimizing the existence of the heterogeneous, cosmopolitan collective that has given emphasis to the preservation of the Mediterranean Diet after its inscription on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Indeed, the UNESCO does a lot more than elevating the Mediterranean identity. By inscribing the Mediterranean Diet on the list, this international body objectified the invention of the idea of ‘the’ Mediterranean community as a homogeneous whole. The purpose of this reflection is to shift away from the methodological nationalism on which the unifying paradigm of this epistemic community is based by adopting a more ‘emic’ approach. This ‘emic’ path will allow for a new understanding of the current governmental usage of the Mediterranean food heritage, since it places more value on the point of view of the members of the Mediterranean communities than on the account of the epistemic community that has busied itself with the safeguarding of their identity and their food culture. The perspective of the historian will also be considered. The goal of this change of paradigm is to promote dialogue and mutual understanding between Mediterranean communities and, at the same time, to reconcile the praxis in the UNESCO’s fields of intervention with the current heritage doctrine and the constitutional mission of the organization.

    • Abstract:

      We all love Mediterranean cuisine. We can even say that we all adore our common Mediterranean legacy. However, we are so far to feel the same passion for the fellow human beings, that perpetuate the shared heritage beyond the internal sea. Our reaction to the present refugees' crisis reveals that we are still afraid of the non-European inhabitants of the Mediterranean. We are now building walls and check points to stop war victims out of our frontiers. Inside our countries, the racism against them is growing too. These two facts prove that the exposure to the culture of the Other through World heritage doesn't make us more tolerant to the alterity. Sixty years after the rise of the travels abroad, the expectation that tourism will teach us to embrace human diversity seems to be a total disillusion. At the end, eating kebabs, falafel and visiting Palmyra or Aleppo only turned us into consumers of cosmopolitan experiences and nothing more. This book is written for the readers who wonder about the humanitarian purpose of the World heritage. It addresses the Mediterranean diet's translation into a transnational identity marker, currently underway following the inclusion on the list of the intangible cultural heritage of the Humanity in 2010, in this perspective. The author exposes the reasons behind the present consensus about the heritagization of this nutritional model, which being first an object of scientific discourse like any else, is today converted into an intangible expression of Mediterraneaness. Rather than tell the history of the metamorphose, he adopts here a genealogical approach, which brings him to reconnect this newcomer of the heritage's arena with other series of events, normative acts and ideas, sometimes remote in space and time, that configure the present social existence of the Mediterranean diet. The author tries to demonstrate throughout this less conventional approach that what distinguishes the 'UNESCO regime' of the food pyramid made famous in the 1990s is primarily the fact that its conversion into a cultural element is the direct consequence of the political will to inscribe this scientific invention on the list. He will also reveal the profound changes regarding the UNESCO's heritage doctrine during the last decades, including the rise of the discursive use of notions as cultural diversity, identity and community, to understand the reason of the proposal's success. He will then finally be able to explain the present popularity of the 'UNESCO regime' as a governmentality instrument in areas other than public health, such as the Euro-Mediterranean co-operation, ecology or cultural tourism. The critical analysis of this case study will reveal the lack of the reflection about the effectiveness of the current World heritage policies that UNESCO needs urgently to promote in response to the new challenges of the post-national era we live now.

    • Abstract:

      The Mediterranean Diet was one of the first food-related nominations on the international cultural heritage list. By introducing the concepts of “epistemic community” and “governmentality” to analyze this heritagization process, I will evaluate the participation and consent of “the Mediterranean people” and their belief in a common identity based in a holistic conception of this food tradition—the so-called diaita. My goal is to demonstrate that the inscription’s proposal was motivated first by a long-term strategy aimed at promoting an “umbrella brand” of agro-food products extended to the whole Mediterranean space. Then, I will emphasize the attempt to design a model of property rights protection that is adequate for this food label, which was later presented within the realm of the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization as a measure for safeguarding the diaita as an item of intangible cultural heritage. Finally, I will argue that this claim totally omits the rights of the numerous expatriates living outside this region.

    • Abstract:

      The prevalent global heritage discourse has been primarily Euro-centric in its origin, premise, and praxis. Diverse cultural, historical, and geographical contexts, such as that of Asia, call for more context-specific approaches to heritage management. This book explores this complexity of managing the cultural heritage in Asia. Case studies include sites of Angkor, Himeji Castle, Kathmandu Valley, Luang Prabang, Lumbini, and Malacca, and the book uses these to explore the religious worldviews, heritage policies, intangible heritage dimensions, traditional preservation practices, cultural tourism, and the notion of cultural landscape that are crucial in understanding the cultural heritage in Asia. It critiques the contemporary regulatory frameworks in operation and focuses on the issues of global impact on the local cultures in the region. The book goes on to emphasize the need for integrated heritage management approaches that encompass the plurality of heritage conservation concerns in Asian countries. Themes are discussed from the vantage point of heritage scholars and practitioners in the South, Southeast, and East Asia. This book thus presents a distinctive Asian perspective which is a valuable source for students and practitioners of heritage within and beyond the Asian context.

    • Abstract:

      In Macedonia debates about heritage are played out along the fault lines of ethnic and religious conflict as well as a faltering economy and threats from neighbors about interpretations of history. The country’s 2002 and 2004 failed applications for a UNESCO Masterpiece of Intangible Cultural Heritage and its ongoing submissions of representative lists provide a valuable case study of how rural folklore symbols are selectively adopted into heritage discourse and elevated to iconic status. This essay analyzes Teškoto (the Heavy/Difficult Dance) as featured in two UNESCO Masterpiece applications as well as in village contexts, ensemble performances, an annual staged ritual, and tourist appropriations. The story of how Teškoto became a national symbol but failed to achieve UNESCO status as ICH illuminates the manner in which nationalist discourse shapes performance practices.

      Volume 1

    • Abstract:

      This paper analyses the process by which intangible heritage has gradually been integrated into the conservationists’ awareness. Intangible heritage, whose creative products are expressed in skills, knowledge, and representations, constitutes a challenge for museums, which were conceived, from their start, around the value of objects. Even when these spaces have previously acknowledged the importance of intangible cultural expressions, they have rarely performed the tasks of collecting, conserving, or displaying this kind of heritage. The prevailing perspective in Mexican museums is, to this day, to present them only as part of a ‘glorious past’ –before the Spaniards’ arrival to the continent–so that only recently have museum professionals become interested in the vast amount of traditional knowledge, skills, and activities that indigenous peoples still keep alive, more than 500 years after the Conquest. The conservation of cultural diversity implies not only the sampling of a few customs or artistic expressions that dominant groups consider valuable, but rather the formulation of government and social programs which ensure the continuity of ways of life, customs, and a sustainable relationship with the environment which created a given culture.

    • Abstract:

      Heritage has become lately a scholarship field with multiple issues. An integral part of human cultures, heritage interests today both the decision maker, the researcher, the public but also the international organizations. UNESCO early felt all the potential of such a field, developing during the last half century, a normative arsenal covering various domains of heritage. These domains are so close that the standard-setting instruments inevitably overlap each other. This is the case of the World heritage and of the Intangible cultural heritage, respectively covered by the 1972 Convention and the 2003 Convention. This paper will consider the links that exist or not between these two conventions. It will try to make a first census of the World heritage List sites where elements of the Intangible cultural heritage Representative List exist and briefly examine the nature of the link between them. It will, finally, consider what can be the modalities of cooperation between the two standard-setting instruments.

      Title The Red City: Medina of Marrakesh
      Year 2012
    • Abstract:

      A medina among medinas Marrakesh, known as the ‘Red City’, is the largest of the thirty-one historic living towns (medinas) in Morocco with an intramural surface of 640 ha (including the Aguedal and Ménara gardens), extensive ramparts and their majestic gates, numerous monuments and residences, preserved gardens, long-inhabited markets and a vibrant craft industry. The cultural space of Jamaâ El Fna square mediates between the Medina and the external world. As an attractive interface and place of integration of populations originating from diverse backgrounds, it adds heritage value to the special role played by the Medina and the whole of this urban area in Morocco (Bigio, 2010). The population of the Medina accounts for 17.17 per cent of that of the urban area of Marrakesh, i.e. 182,637 of 1,063,415 inhabitants, according to the 2004 census, and it represents a quarter of the population of the old cities of Morocco, i.e. 182,637 of 737,945 inhabitants (Taamouti et al., 2008). Marrakesh was born out of strategic necessity. It was founded by the Almoravid dynasty in AD 1070–1071 on what seems to have been a space of commercial exchanges between mountain and plains communities. It was quasi-sacred territory, Amur, in which violence was banished, under the protection of a Berber divinity, Akuch. The sacred space of Akuch, or more precisely Amur Akuch, became Marrakesh, thus giving its name to the early urban settlement (Toufiq, 1988; Skounti, 2004).

    • Abstract:

      The scope of intangible cultural heritage related to human well-being is large. Many cultural practices, if not the majority of them, were designed by communities, groups and individuals for well-being purposes, be it physical or mental. Such practices are also intended to ensure the continuity of the society over time and to maintain social order. According to Napier, those practices related to human body and soul are embodied in cultural systems of value (Napier 2014) that overwhelm them. The representations of those two components of the human being, body and soul, are tightly linked in traditional cultures. Thus, many cultural practices were designed for the well-being of both of them. They also mix therapies intended to bring about the relief of each and/or both. Traditional pharmacopeia, music, dance, prayers and rituals are often used in combination in order to help patients recover from actual or psychosomatic diseases. Nevertheless, part of social and cultural practices is more likely conceived to deal with human health in various ways. The fourth of the five main domains defined in article 2.2 of the 2003 Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage is “Knowledge and practices concerning nature and the universe”.1 This obviously covers a large range of topics and themes, encompassing diverse knowledge, know-how and practices intended to provide humans with the means to better define their place in their environment and, more broadly, in the whole universe. One could expect that nominations for inscription on the four mechanisms of the 2003 Convention,2 mainly the two lists defined in articles 16 and 17, were to deal with more or less traditional medical knowledge. After verification, this does not seem to be the case. As a matter of fact, the elements related to this area of knowledge and the practices inscribed on the lists are very few. No programme, and no project or activity was selected on the Register of best safeguarding practices set up by the Convention under article 18. No international assistance was approved by the Committee concerning a project in that field. This paper focuses on those inscribed elements which are explicitly related to medical knowledge and, more broadly, to human health. It is based on the information contained in files of nominations which can be accessed on the UNESCO website dedicated to the 2003 Convention. The paper will first present, in brief terms, the elements which fall under that domain, and discuss the main issues raised as well as the potential developments.

    • Abstract:

      When faced with the question as to what domains belong to the Intangible Cultural Heritage, people almost invariably mention language, often alongside music and dance. Nevertheless, article 2(1) of the 2003 Convention, which defines the intangible cultural heritage that is to be safeguarded, does not mention ‘language’ as such. The article does speak about ‘practices, representations and expressions, knowledge and skills ... that communities, groups and in some cases individuals, recognize as part of their cultural heritage’. The same paragraph also states that the heritage that is to be safeguarded, is transmitted from generation to generation, that it is constantly re-created and that it provides groups and communities with a sense of identity and continuity. Well, languages are transmitted from generation to generation, they are constantly re-created, they presuppose knowledge and skills, and speech acts can be described in terms of linguistic practices and expressions. Finally, languages as a rule play important if not crucial roles in the identities of groups and individuals. In the course of 2002 and 2003, while the draft of the Convention was being prepared at expert and intergovernmental meetings, the question of language was extensively discussed. There were a few voices in favour of the inclusion of language as such under the definition of intangible cultural heritage that is to be safeguarded. However, it was decided to include in Article 2(2) oral traditions and expressions, including language as a vehicle of the intangible cultural heritage as one of the domains in which the intangible cultural heritage is manifested.

      Title Empty gestures? Heritage and the Politics of Recognition
      Year 2007
    • Abstract:

      The politics of identity cannot simply be dismissed as empty or abstract gesturing. The conflicts that occur around the rights to control the expression of cultural identity have important material consequences for struggles over economic resources and struggles for equity and human rights. This chapter examines the role that archaeologists, often unwittingly, play in the arbitration of identity politics and the consequences this has for both the discipline and, more specifically, Australian Indigenous communities. Drawing on a critical reading of Foucault’s later work on governmentality (Foucault 1979), this chapter provides a theoretical framework for understanding the conflicts that arise when archaeological knowledge and expertise about the material past intersects with the use of that past as indigenous heritage.

    • Abstract:

      The Unesco Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage has significantly raised international and community awareness of the legitimacy of the concept of intangible heritage. Although, in raising this awareness, the Convention has not yet provided a framework that privileges the community/sub-national orientation of intangible heritage. This paper argues that definitions and ideas of heritage developed by national and international agencies such as UNESCO and ICOMOS need challenging and reconsidering. The dichotomy between tangible and intangible heritage needs re-thinking, and indeed, I posit all heritage is intangible.

      Title Intangible heritage
      Year 2009
    • Abstract:

      This volume examines the implications and consequences of the idea of ‘intangible heritage’ to current international academic and policy debates about the meaning and nature of cultural heritage and the management processes developed to protect it. It provides an accessible account of the different ways in which intangible cultural heritage has been defined and managed in both national and international contexts, and aims to facilitate international debate about the meaning, nature and value of not only intangible cultural heritage, but heritage more generally. Intangible Heritage fills a significant gap in the heritage literature available and represents a significant cross section of ideas and practices associated with intangible cultural heritage. The authors brought together for this volume represent some of the key academics and practitioners working in the area, and discuss research and practices from a range of countries, including: Zimbabwe, Morocco, South Africa, Japan, Australia, United Kingdom, the Netherlands, USA, Brazil and Indonesia, and bring together a range of areas of expertise which include anthropology, law, heritage studies, archaeology, museum studies, folklore, architecture, Indigenous studies and history.

    • Abstract:

      This paper explores the contradictions of the advent, dissemination and use of the terms‘intangible value’ and ‘tangible value’. We examine their logical and grammaticalincoherence, and the ‘work’ that these strange terms, so often used in tandem, do todomesticate what are for some people the uncomfortable implications of the concept ofintangible cultural heritage. In developing our argument, the paper draws on a range of policyand academic documents to illustrate the extent of the professional and academic unease withthe concept of intangible heritage, and the degree to which this unease unintentionally fostersthe maintenance of the authorized heritage discourse.

      Volume 9
      Year 2003
    • Abstract:

      Community involvement in heritage management is an issue that is increasingly being debated within heritage studies and management agencies. This paper examines a case study from Queensland, Australia, of a community-initiated and controlled heritage project. The paper outlines and discusses the implications that this project has to an understanding of the nature of heritage, the processes of its management and the role of expertise within management. It argues that the development of a management process that is meaningfully inclusive at a community level must overthrow the ways in which heritage is defined and understood. Not only must concepts of intangible heritage be developed, but also concepts of heritage must usefully incorporate an understanding of the nature of intangible experiences and values that are associated with the physical aspects of heritage. Moreover, it is important to understand that these experiences and values are themselves open to management and regulation. Subsequently, an inclusive management process requires a self-conscious evaluation of the role of heritage managers in the process and a conscious decision to support, or otherwise, local community aspirations.

      Volume 4
      Year 2009
    • Abstract:

      This paper is an attempt to explore the challenges of defining intangible heritage and ‘community’ in England. It uses as its case study the Museum of English Rural Life, University of Reading: an urban museum with a rural theme. The paper examines current theoretical discourse around the concept of the ‘first voice’ and debate about the role of museums in the preservation of intangible heritage. It then examines the relevance of these concepts to the identification of ‘rural’ intangible heritage stake holders in England. In this way, it shows the potential for concepts of intangible heritage to influence national museums. However, by applying theory and practice which is designed to support work with well-defined ‘originating communities’ to a national museum, it also highlights the challenges of initiating community engagement in a multicultural society.

      This paper argues that life stories and other personal biographical accounts should be considered as significant manifestations of the intangible cultural heritage. It addresses the consequences for 'memory institutions', i.e. museums, libraries, archives and similar bodies, in relation to the protection and safeguarding of this heritage. First, the main challenges that these institutions have to face in order to protect this special kind of heritage are considered. Second, there is consideration of the main changes caused by the introduction of new information communication technologies (ICTs) into the cultural heritage world, and specifically, the effect of ICT developments on the institutions responsible for autobiographical memoirs are examined.

    • Abstract:

      This article analyzes recent news-making initiatives by UNESCO and their implications for language policy on the international level. In particular, I focus on two conventions relevant to language policy-making, the ‘Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions’ (approved October 2005), and the ‘Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Heritage’ (which entered into force in April 2006). The adoption of the former was preceded by a widely publicized controversy regarding the status of cultural activities and goods in relation to international trade agreements and protectionism. The latter is a complement to the UNESCO World Heritage program that provides for a similar listmaking of expressions of intangible heritage (including oral traditions). I discuss both conventions in the light of media response and analyze their potential for driving language policy in Member States; and I conclude with a brief description of other UNESCO efforts at shaping language politics.

    • Abstract:

      Under the DCHPII project ― Digital Cultural Heritage: Platforms and Inventories of the Intangible1 ― the Map of e-Inventories of the Intangible Cultural Heritage was published in 2017. In a preliminary analysis, it was concluded that among the 158 inventories registered in this Map, only 22 (14%) clearly announced the collaborative nature of the inventory, calling for direct participation of "Communities, Groups and Individuals" (expression hereinafter often replaced by the acronym CGIs).2 This call referred to the submission of elements to be inscribed in the inventories and instructions for filling in the online database. With few exceptions, we did not find in these platforms references to participation in other phases of the inventory, namely in the planning, structuring and evaluation of the process. Since the application of participatory methodologies is one of the research lines of the DCHPII project, and considering that CGIs’ participation has a central role in the implementation of the Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage (UNESCO, 2003) – i.e., in all measures of safeguards invoked in it, and not only in the inventory - the results of the Map analysis activated in the project the need to elaborate the state of art of the use of these methodologies. For this reason, a comprehensive perspective is presented in this publication, a work that addresses the issues of inventory and digital platforms, but supplants them by analysing the overall safeguarding process.

      Year 2009
    • Abstract:

      This is the first volume specifically dedicated to the consolidation and clarification of Heritage Studies as a distinct field with its own means of investigation. It presents the range of methods that can be used and illustrates their application through case studies from different parts of the world, including the UK and USA. The challenge that the collection makes explicit is that Heritage Studies must develop a stronger recognition of the scope and nature of its data and a concise yet explorative understanding of its analytical methods. The methods considered fall within three broad categories: textual/discourse analysis, methods for investigating people’s attitudes and behaviour; and methods for exploring the material qualities of heritage. The methods discussed and illustrated range from techniques such as text analysis, interviews, participant observation, to semiotic analysis of heritage sites and the use of GIS. Each paper discusses the ways in which methods used in social analysis generally are explored and adapted to the specific demands that arise when applied to the investigation of heritage in its many forms. Heritage Studies is a seminal volume that will help to define the field. The global perspective and the shared focus upon the development of reflexive methodologies ensure that the volume explores these central issues in a manner that is simultaneously case-specific and of general relevance.

      Volume 7
      Year 2007
    • Abstract:

      Disaster management for cultural heritage has been gaining recognition as an important issue for the long term management and conservation of these assets. Natural disasters are localised events and have the ability to cause widespread loss and destruction to a community's cultural heritage. The social benefits of heritage preservation are often cited as the justification for developing disaster management plans. These social benefits are generally presented in relation to the disaster recovery phase. However, these benefits are also attributable to the initial stages experienced during a disaster event. Applying these existing arguments to this initial stage may assist to transcend the existing attitudinal barriers and present the issue of disaster management for cultural heritage in a manner which is relevant to the diversity of stakeholders.

    • Abstract:

      Authenticity is a significant concept in the heritage field. However, the connotations of authenticity and its relevance to Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) need further consideration. This paper ascertains the function of authenticity in the heritage field and reconceptualises authenticity so as to relate it to ICH. The subjectivities of ICH practitioners, as well as their subjective perspectives and experiences are privileged in this research, in line with the general aims of Critical Heritage Studies. Drawing on the idea of ‘existential authenticity’, which was developed in tourism studies, this paper presents a concept of ‘subjective authenticity’ with which to describe the ability of ICH practitioners to convey the dynamic, subjective and developing ICH values in both intrapersonal and interpersonal embodiments. Using case studies of ICH from Lijiang, China, the idea of subjective authenticity is evidenced and illustrated. Meanwhile, the materialist or ‘objective’ authenticity that exists in the Chinese Authorised Heritage Discourse is critiqued as inappropriate. Theoretically, this paper investigates people’s subjectivities and experiences in the process of ICH value-making, as well as identity-making. The results contribute not only to the establishment of an inclusive concept of authenticity in heritage studies, but also to the theorisation of existential authenticity in tourism studies.

    • Abstract:

      Government plays a key role in addressing the tension between the protection and the use of heritage in tourism. However, the diverse perspectives of heritage officials have not been well researched, particularly in regard to intangible cultural heritage (ICH) in the context of tourism. China is typical of a country where there is an obvious tension between protection and commodification of ICH for tourism. This research has studied the perspectives of officials from national to local levels in regard to the relationship between protection (in terms of the concepts of authenticity and integrity) and commodification of the ICH in Lijiang, a popular heritage tourism area in China. The research reveals the diversity and stratification of the officials’ perspectives in China. While the national ICH policy exerts profound influence in a top-down manner, the officials at the middle and lower levels mediate any divergence between the written policy and its implementation. In particular, local officials are more sympathetic to tourism commodification of ICH. As well as providing empirical evidence of the diverse understandings of individual heritage officials, this paper also contributes to the critical study of the ICH management system in China.

    • Abstract:

      While Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) emerges as a new topic in the fields of heritage studies and tourism studies, the changeability of ICH in tourism commodification is still underresearched. The tension between protection and commodification of ICH is intensified when ICH is regarded as a heritage to protect and a resource for commodification, such as in the case of China. With a musical ICH element in Lijiang, China as the case, this paper applies a Critical Heritage Studies approach to investigate the values and components of ICH from the perspective of the music players. From both the diachronic and synchronic dimensions, the research shows that the players construct the values of their ICH in a subject, diverse and dynamic process. The less- and the more commodified forms of performance are not clearly differentiated; rather, they are regarded as equally important to realise players’ dynamic and subjective needs. Provided practitioners can engage with their ICH freely, commodification can be seen as an indispensable form of the ICH-making process. This paper aims to reveal the dynamism of ICH, to rethink the commodification of ICH, and to rethink the relationship between the commodification and the making of ICH from a critical approach.

    • Abstract:

      Since the end of the twentieth century the increasing importance of cultural heritage has been complemented with the recognition and protection of intangible heritage. This new approach to cultural heritage requires scientific knowledge supported by new technologies. This context is used as the starting point for furthering knowledge of the relationship between architecture, liturgy and music in Romanesque church architecture – the first artistic style to become widespread in the West – by including a new intangible dimension: sound. This case study of the emblematic cathedral of Santiago de Compostela uses computer simulation to expose the acoustic behaviour of the original Romanesque space – now covered by Baroque elements – and its effect on the functional and spatial structure.

    • Abstract:

      This article presents issues encountered in ethnographic fieldwork in Kerala, south India, on a tradition of Sanskrit theatre called Kūtiyāttam. Key issues include recent changes in both the audience and performing troupes as Kerala's society has become more egalitarian, and reduced ritual activity by priests. Kūtiyāttam has been transformed from a devotional offering in temples to a cultural performance viewed as an art form. Ethnographic research on this tradition has contributed to international recognition and patronage. In this case, ethnographic fieldwork affects both the researchers and the subjects of their research.

    • Abstract:

      « L’Autre, comme l’écrit Françoise Héritier-Augé, c’est d’abord celui qui ne mange pas comme soi » (1985 : 61). L’alimentation serait, autrement dit, le socle à partir duquel se développent les identités individuelles et collectives. Comme tout fait social, l’alimentation d’un groupe, d’une catégorie sociale ou d’une société particulière forme système et constitue un ensemble de représentations, savoirs et pratiques qui s’affirme dans ses différences par rapport à d’autres systèmes alimentaires. C’est d’ailleurs cet aspect qui est largement repris dans la littérature anthropologique : l’alimentation incarne et cristallise les différences culturelles et identitaires ; elle s’impose à ce titre comme l’un des fondements de l’existence historique des sociétés, des régions, des familles1… Pourtant, alors même que les controverses sur les phénomènes concomitants de destructions et de crispations identitaires se font de plus en plus vigoureuses, la question de la transformation des modèles alimentaires et des recompositions sociales n’est que rarement étudiée dans une perspective anthropologique.

      The intangible heritage which seems to have the greatest bearing on objects/artefacts are knowledge systems and life ways related to the specific objects but not part thereof. Objects do not speak for culture, or are instrumental reflections thereof unless an extensive body of knowledge/intangible heritage is attached to them. The question remains; what kind of intangible heritage/traditional knowledge should, and must, be added to reach the objective of telling fairly complete and appropriate stories through objects, thereby making objects speak for culture?

      The exceptionally destructive Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami had one of the strongest impacts of any recent disaster, not only in Japan but also around the world. The author is an anthropologist and a survivor of the disaster who lives and works in Sendai, Miyagi, one of the cities closest to the epicentre. Many scientific projects and social programmes were implemented after the earthquake. The responses of anthropologists in Japan reflected various individual forms of behaviour, from participating as volunteers, through organizing public lectures or workshops, to carrying out applied surveys. This paper explores the contribution of these anthropologists’ activism to the afflicted region and its communities. It asks what kind of social engagement the anthropologists’ responses represented, and examines the related effects that the anthropologists’ activities produced among the public. This paper examines these questions from the perspective of my personal experience, because the author was also personally...

    • Abstract:

      After the Great East Japan Earthquake, the Northeast Asian Studies Centre at Tohoku University conducted an extensive project titled, “Investigation into Damage to Folk Cultural Assets from the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami in Miyagi.” The project focused on “intangible folk cultural assets,” such as local festivals and folk performing arts. In this chapter, Takizawa introduces some of the challenges faced by researchers in attempting to measure the degree of damage to, and recovery of, cultural assets that are essentially “intangible” and for which, in many cases, there were no earlier written records. Issues illuminated by the project and their practical significance to society are discussed with particular reference to the reconstruction of local communities and revival of their traditional festivals.

    • Abstract:

      Given this background, this article argues that, from the perspective of science and technology studies, community, in the context of UNESCO’s heritage policy, can be interpreted as a form of assemblage composed by, for example, practices, norms, moral concepts, normative policies, performances and a set of very different actors (see also Macdonald 2013: 5–7; Harrison 2013: 31–32). These actors are arguing and acting within very different frames and cultural or institutional logics, as, for instance, Christoph Brumann argues (in this volume). From the perspective of a symmetrical anthropology discussed by Bruno Latour, all actors within UNESCO’s heritage policy – Brumann talks of experts as well as diplomats, etc. – build a temporally delimited community during sessions or expert meetings. However, within this performative construction process of a heterogeneous community, legal texts, guidelines, application forms – as discussed by Nicolas Adell in this volume – and so on, can also be conceptualized as powerful actants (see Akrich and Latour 1992: 259; Harrison 2013: 32–33) which have their own agency and which, for example, influence the definition, interpretation or valorization of cultural heritage. The following three examples discuss some crucial aspects of cultural heritage and community as a form of assemblage. My main argument here is that, borrowing the idea of translation from science and technology studies discussed by Michel Callon (1986), heritage policy and practices are the result of the successful construction of a social network composed of different human and non-human actors. This perspective, which eventually deconstructs UNESCO’s heritage interventions, can lead to a deeper understanding of cultural heritage in late modernity as Callon’s translation theory asks how actors define and take specific roles within a functioning network, how alliances are built and how actors follow an identical goal even if they may have different personal motivations. All these processes can also be observed when UNESCO, national or subordinate organizations and institutions identify, proclaim, manage and – from an analytical point of view – invent cultural heritage.

    • Abstract:

      In The Archive and the Repertoire preeminent performance studies scholar Diana Taylor provides a new understanding of the vital role of performance in the Americas. From plays to official events to grassroots protests, performance, she argues, must be taken seriously as a means of storing and transmitting knowledge. Taylor reveals how the repertoire of embodied memory—conveyed in gestures, the spoken word, movement, dance, song, and other performances—offers alternative perspectives to those derived from the written archive and is particularly useful to a reconsideration of historical processes of transnational contact. The Archive and the Repertoire invites a remapping of the Americas based on traditions of embodied practice.

      Title Intangible heritage governance, cultural diversity, ethno-nationalism
      Volume 2009
      Year 2009
    • Abstract:

      Since the early 1990s, language used to speak of cultural practices once thought of as "folklore" has become increasingly standardized around the term intangible heritage. Supranational intangible heritage policies promote a contradictory package that aims to preserve local identity and cultural diversity while promoting democratic values and economic development. Such efforts may contribute to the deployment of language that stresses mutual exclusivity and incommensurability, with important consequences for individual and group access to resources. This article examines these tensions with ethnographic attention to a Hungarian folk revival movement, illuminating how local histories of "heritage protection" meet with the global norm of heritage governance in complicated ways. I suggest the paradoxical predicament that both "liberal" notions of diversity and ethno-national boundaries are co-produced through a number of processes in late capitalism, most notably connected to changing relations of property and citizenship regimes.

    • Abstract:

      L’étude a pour objet la description des profils sociologiques des acteurs de la Place Jemaâ El Fna, i.e. la connaissance de leur nombre, de leur provenance géographique, de leur condition économique et de leur statut social en tant que (re)producteurs d’une culture. La connaissance des profils sociologiques autorise un examen de la question cruciale de la transmission des savoirs et savoir-faire, en somme du patrimoine culturel immatériel dont ces acteurs sont les détenteurs. La transmission est envisagée ici autant du point de vue théorique que du point de vue pratique. Il s’agit d’en comprendre les mécanismes de fonctionnement, de défaillance et de proposer des pistes de réflexion pour lui permettre une pérennité dans le contexte actuel caractérisé par des conditions nouvelles voire inédites de production, d’énonciation et de réception. L’étude est basée sur : (i) une enquête de terrain menée auprès des acteurs de la place et (ii) des lectures bibliographiques embrassant le champ des sciences humaines et sociales relatives à la problématique définie ci- dessus de manière très succincte

    • Abstract:

      The South Pacific islands are home to a diversity of peoples with a rich culture and areas of outstanding biodiversity. While monumental heritage is found in some parts of the region, all of the Pacific Islands have a wealth of customs, practices and traditional knowledge linked to natural places. Globalization, modernization and population growth are placing increasing pressure upon this culture and the associated sacred natural sites. In the past, international and domestic attention has focused heavily upon management of protected areas for biodiversity conservation rather than their intangible cultural heritage values. However, more recently attention has turned to safeguarding intangible cultural heritage. Nonetheless, law in this area remains fragmented: independent international treaties protect natural and cultural sites and intangible heritage, and in most cases domestic approaches to heritage protection separate natural areas from cultural elements. This chapter considers the international law in this area and suggests a way forward for the better protection of sacred sites in the South Pacific.

    • Abstract:

      For over ten millennia, sport has remained an integral part of the world’s cultural heritage and identity. However, the global community has only recently begun to realize the positive effects of sport. Although amateur sport and group play are known to boost empowerment, gender equality, inclusion and tolerance, UNESCO has yet to develop any programmes that combine the power of sport with the protection and promotion of intangible cultural heritage (ICH). Sport is a low-cost, high-impact tool that when combined with educational programming is a natural driver of sustainability. Widely utilized by other agencies within the UN, due to a disparate focus on physical heritage, the use of sport has remained almost non-existent within UNESCO. Unlike tourism and other predominantly economic-based approaches, sport is already deeply engrained in the fabrics of societies worldwide. This paper discusses the feasibility of using community level sports-based programming as a means to safeguarding ICH. It takes a critical look at the correlations that exist between sport and ICH as well as the role that sport plays in cultural transmission and socialization. By evaluating current programmes and existing literature, the author examines to what extent UNESCO has begun to implement sports-based programming and how these could be utilized to drive long-term sustainability. In order to go beyond the current confines of traditional sustainability methods, transdisciplinary models incorporating sport, cultural activities and social inclusion must be developed. Thompson concludes by suggesting that UNESCO not only has the means to implement such programming but also the responsibility.

      Title Post-colonial politics and resurgent heritage: the development of Kyrgyzstan's heritage tourism product
      Volume 7
      Year 2004
    • Abstract:

      In 1991 the Kyrgyz Republic secured its political autonomy from the USSR and set out on the road to cultural and economic independence. Tourism was high on the development agenda, not least because of the country's abundance of natural assets, its experience with health and recreational tourism during the Soviet period and its lack of viable alternatives. During the post-colonial period, tourist activity has been based mainly on the country's mountains and lakes. More recently attempts to develop a heritage tourism product have mirrored the resurgence of ethnic Kyrgyz nationalism and Turkic culture throughout Central Asia. The paper identifies ethnic diversity and nationalist revivalism as potential constraints to the development of heritage tourism in Kyrgyzstan. Moreover, the issue of dissonant interest groups in the protection of the heritage of Kyrgyzstan is addressed. Much of the international interest in Kyrgyz heritage has been directed at the epos of the nomads of the Steppes and it is their protection, rather than that of tangible heritage sites, that has attracted sponsorship from UNESCO and other bodies. Additionally, the tangible heritage sites that have been proposed by the Kyrgyz government for World Heritage status are of domestic and regional, rather than international interest. Implications for the strategic development of Kyrgyzstan's heritage tourism product are discussed, with specific reference to world heritage.

      Title The Cultural Properties Protection Law and Japan's Folk Performing Arts
      Volume 53
      Year 1994
    • Abstract:

      The Cultural Properties Protection Law ("Bunkazai hogoh?"), and in particular its provision for designating important intangible folk cultural properties, has influenced Japan's folk performing arts in three important ways. The law establishes the folk performing arts as one of Japan's "cultural properties"; it provides the impetus for nationwide surveys that help provide a comprehensive picture of the arts that exist; and it aids in their survival by stimulating the formation of local preservation societies. The article concludes by suggesting that the designation process may already have gone far enough in turning the folk performing arts into cultural icons, and that their survival may now depend on leaving room for change.

    • Abstract:

      Nowadays, increasing attention has been directed to the development, utilization and preservation of intangible heritage. But some basic issues still remain unresolved, such as how to define nonmaterial cultural heritage, what principles should be followed in this process and what the relationship is between nonmaterial cultural heritage and regional tourism resources. And this is exactly what this paper is devoted to dealing with.

    • Abstract:

      Dai Minorities' performance is one of popular tourist products in Xishuangbanna. This paper discusses the factors related to the authenticity of performance from the tourists' perspective. First, Dai minority performance is divided into several basic elements. Then based on the fieldwork, observation and interviews, questionnaire survey is conducted from 25 Sep. 2003 to 10 Oct. 2003. Statistical analysis indicates tourists all think that the dressing of the performers, the performance content, music instrument, the atmosphere, basic posture, the performers' expression and definition of the preside are elements which have the most important impact on the authenticity. Such elements as age and nature of the performer, performing place, bring up mode, whether or not the music rhythm is changing, and tradition of playacting and singing language are elements which are less important. Genders of the performers, when the performance begins and performing order is found to have no effect on the authenticity of the products.

    • Abstract:

      This article argues that despite criticism within and out- side China of the country’s practices in safeguarding its intangible cultural heritage, China has been truly attempting to execute and enhance the UNESCO instruments and to adopt UNESCO rules and practices. In return, it has enhanced the condition of its traditional culture, legal system, and soft power, thus heading in the direction of becoming a model Member State of UNESCO. In order to sup- port this hypothesis, the article analyses how the 2003 Convention has influenced the manner in which China has sought to restore its traditional culture. To do so, I examine an authoritative list of the “Top 10” events in the field of intangible cultural heritage that took place in China during 2016. Moreover, this article suggests that the reason China has become involved in such a high-priced ICH revolution to a model degree is that quite early on the State realized the capacities hidden in traditional culture and the political potential of applying UNESCO’s policies, and has been using the latter ever since as a vehicle to enhance the projection of soft power abroad, as well as a platform to establish a new sense of national pride and mul- ti-ethnic “Chineseness” domestically. In bringing Chinese traditional culture and values back to the public discourse and making it a big part of its national project of reviving its glorious past, it can serve as a foundation for a unifying nationalism, hence serving legitimization purposes as well.

    • Abstract:

      The difficult politicization of the ethnological heritageEthnology was, in the early 1980s, endowed with an institution in the state establishment for managing France’s national heritage and “patrimony”. The author’s professional experiences serve as the basis for comments on the benefits of this meeting between science and administration and on the specific place of government actions in favor of a category of the national heritage characterized by the immateriality of its objects. This specificity has placed this discipline’s representatives in a position that breaks with classical procedures for managing historical monuments and museums. This position takes a “reflexive turn” sanctioning research-action based on a double reversal of perspectives: turn any ethnological or other national heritage into the subject matter for an ethnology of activities in relation to this heritage; and shift expertise toward the center of national heritage policies so as to make ethnologists’ documentary expertise into a participatory one.

    • Abstract:

      Ce texte est l’expression d’une première approche du patrimoine culturel immatériel, à la fois la notion et son « instrument », pour utiliser le vocabulaire de l’Unesco, la Convention de 2003. Il fait état d’une réflexion pratique inaugurée en 2007 avec l’équipe d’un parc naturel régional – dont je donnerai plus loin les grandes lignes – et d’un intérêt curieux pour la manière dont la Convention était considérée dans les instances de l’État culturel français, puisqu’elle venait d’être ratifiée, et donc pour la prise nationale dont elle allait faire l’objet, qui m’ont valu d’être invité à intervenir dans le séminaire dirigé par Chiara Bortolotto et Sylvie Grenet sur la question d’une éventuelle dimension anthropologique de cette nouvelle catégorie patrimoniale.

      Year 2012
    • Abstract:

      L’inscription du « repas gastronomique des Français » sur la liste représentative du patrimoine culturel immatériel de l’Unesco, en novembre 2010, a été un événement qui a suscité de nombreux commentaires. Dans la presse française, bien sûr, qui a poussé un « cocorico » triomphal, voyant dans cette distinction le signe de reconnaissance de l’excellence française. Mais aussi des commentaires et des débats au sein des instances de l’Unesco en charge du suivi de la convention pour la sauvegarde du patrimoine culturel immatériel. La restitution du processus d’une candidature affichée comme émanant de la volonté présidentielle montre une redéfinition de l’objet pour qu’il s’accorde avec l’esprit de la convention : c’est un repas festif et ritualisé qui a été inscrit et non la gastronomie française, comme cela était envisagé au départ. Pourtant, au final, c’est bien cette dernière qui apparaît avoir été reconnue, de même que l’inscription est bien assimilée à un label d’excellence. Qu’est-ce à dire ? Si la catégorie du patrimoine culturel immatériel a contribué à mettre en crise la notion européo-centrée de patrimoine, le cas montre que celle-ci n’a pas dit son dernier mot. En fait la situation est paradoxale : c’est au bénéfice d’une sorte de « retour d’anthropologie » – au sens de retour de manivelle – que la communauté des Français se voit distinguée et identifiée à ses pratiques alimentaires. Mais en identifiant un tel patrimoine à une communauté nationale, l’inscription fait de la France une patrie du patrimoine. La convention de 2003 contribuerait-elle à la renationalisation du patrimoine ?

      Volume 54
      Year 2006
    • Abstract:

      Traditional cultural expressions are often unprotectable under existing intellectual property laws. While a sui generis approach may be appropriate for certain types of expressions and / or particular cultural communities, there may be adequate tenets embedded in current intellectual property laws and case law precedent to accommodate the needs of traditional cultures looking to protect their cultural expressions. The range of traditional cultural expressions is such that no one law--be it an existing Western law or sui generis law--will be adequate to address all the different types of cultures and expressions in existence. Case precedent from many jurisdictions and deference to specific tribal and aboriginal preferences will engender the most satisfactory results for these cultures, at least until there is adequate understanding amongst tribes and jurisdictions on an international level to create a sui generis law that is suitable for a majority of situations.
