    2009 United Nations Intangible Educational, Scientific and Cultural Cultural Organization Heritage Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity Rep List 2009 2.15:Layout 1 26/5/10 09:25 Page 1 2009 Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity Rep List 2009 2.15:Layout 1 26/5/10 09:25 Page 2 © UNESCO/Michel Ravassard Foreword by Irina Bokova, Director-General of UNESCO UNESCO is proud to launch this much-awaited series of publications devoted to three key components of the 2003 Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage: the List of Intangible Cultural Heritage in Need of Urgent Safeguarding, the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, and the Register of Good Safeguarding Practices. The publication of these first three books attests to the fact that the 2003 Convention has now reached the crucial operational phase. The successful implementation of this ground-breaking legal instrument remains one of UNESCO’s priority actions, and one to which I am firmly committed. In 2008, before my election as Director-General of UNESCO, I had the privilege of chairing one of the sessions of the Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage, in Sofia, Bulgaria. This enriching experience reinforced my personal convictions regarding the significance of intangible cultural heritage, its fragility, and the urgent need to safeguard it for future generations. Rep List 2009 2.15:Layout 1 26/5/10 09:25 Page 3 It is most encouraging to note that since the adoption of the Convention in 2003, the term ‘intangible cultural heritage’ has become more familiar thanks largely to the efforts of UNESCO and its partners worldwide.

  • Música Popular, Memória, Patrimônio
    Poder e valor das listas nas políticas de patrimônio e na música popular Porto Alegre, 03 de maio de 2006 Texto elaborado para o debate A memória da música popular promovido pelo Projeto Unimúsica 2006 – festa e folguedo Elizabeth Travassos Instituto Villa-Lobos Programa de Pós-graduação em Música UNIRIO Gostaria de propor como contribuição a essa conversa sobre música popular uma reflexão sobre o fenômeno das listas; sobre o poder e o valor que têm as listas nas políticas de patrimônio e na canção popular. Como vocês sabem, listas e inventários adquiriram visibilidade, recentemente, a partir das proclamações pela UNESCO de “obras-primas do patrimônio cultural oral e imaterial da humanidade”. Segundo a Convenção aprovada na 32ª Assembléia Geral da UNESCO, em 2003, o patrimônio oral e imaterial abrange práticas, representações, conhecimentos e técnicas. Ele manifesta-se nas tradições e expressões orais, incluindo a língua, nos espetáculos, rituais e festas, nas técnicas do artesanato tradicional, em conhecimentos referentes à natureza. A Convenção nos propõe então olhar práticas sociais e festas como obras- primas. Este curto-circuito entre a noção antropológica de cultura, considerada como totalidade dos artefatos materiais e simbólicos do homem, e a noção altamente distintiva de obra-prima, causa certa perplexidade. Estaria incluída no patrimônio cultural a arte da conversação? Não admira que o tema se preste à controvérsia e mesmo ao humor. Foi em 2001 a primeira proclamação da UNESCO, que apontou 19 “obras- primas”, tais como a música de trompas transversas da comunidade Tagbana, na Costa do Marfim e o canto polifônico na República da Geórgia, entre muitas outras.

Em abril de 2006, a Convenção entrou em vigor após ter sido alcançado o número mínimo de adesões de estados signatários. Um dos seus objetivos é corrigir a tendência etnocêntrica da Lista do patrimônio mundial cultural e natural (adotada em 1972), que abrange um número elevado de realizações da civilização cristã ocidental, em detrimento dos testemunhos das realizações da maioria dos povos (V. Lévi-Strauss, 2001:24. A lista referida pode ser vista em http://whc.unesco.org/fr/list). A preocupação com uma justa representação da diversidade cultural colocou as noções de oralidade e intangibilidade no centro da política da UNESCO para a cultura. O Programa de proclamações de obras-primas do patrimônio oral e intangível da humanidade antecedeu a aprovação do texto da Convenção (divergindo dele em alguns aspectos) e gerou, entre 2001 e 2005, três listas de complexos culturais agraciados com a distinção da UNESCO, espalhados pelos cinco continentes.
