The intangible cultural heritage (ICH) of the world's communities
is an inheritance that has been passed down through many
generations. Its survival, however, is increasingly threatened by
the realities of post-modern society, such as rapid urbanization,
large-scale migration, severe environmental change, and
globalization. In 2003, the UNESCO Convention for the Safeguarding
of the Intangible Cultural Heritage recognized the importance of
ICH, both as a mainspring of cultural diversity and a source of
sustainable development. Early efforts to implement the Convention
are bringing to light issues that are crucial to the survival of
ICH. Many of these involve its interaction with intellectual
property law. To clarify the relationship between these two fields,
this present volume gathers the views of scholars and practitioners
with diverse expertise and national backgrounds. They examine four
main issues: the construction and operation of ICH inventories; the
conceptualization of the "community" as a holder of ICH; how to
obtain the community's prior informed consent; and the pros and
cons of various regulatory regimes. With the book's variety of
contributions, the common thread is the belief that regulatory
regimes must be designed so that ICH will not only be safeguarded
in archives and museums, but also in its living form.
