In this comparative, international study Marilena Alivizatou
investigates the relationship between museums and the new concept
of "intangible heritage." She charts the rise of intangible
heritage within the global sphere of UN cultural policy and
explores its implications both in terms of international politics
and with regard to museological practice and critical theory. Using
a grounded ethnographic methodology, Alivizatou examines intangible
heritage in the local complexities of museum and heritage work in
Oceania, the Americas and Europe. This multi-sited, cross-cultural
approach highlights key challenges currently faced by cultural
institutions worldwide in understanding and presenting this form of
heritage.
