Über dieses Buch
Dieses Open-Access-Handbuch ist das erste, das eine Bestandsaufnahme und einen umfassenden internationalen und interdisziplinären Überblick über die Entwicklungen in der lebendigen Kultur seit Beginn der Konvention zum Schutz des immateriellen Kulturerbes im Jahr 2003 präsentiert. Es basiert auf einem erweiterten Kulturbegriff, wie er seit den 1980er Jahren von der UNESCO und von mehr als 180 Ländern verwendet wird. Die Konvention verdeutlicht die bedeutende Rolle des globalen Südens bei der Sensibilisierung des Planeten für die Bedeutung immaterieller kultureller Praktiken als konstituierende Bestandteile kultureller Identität. Da in den kommenden Jahrzehnten immaterielle kulturelle Praktiken für eine nachhaltige und friedliche planetarische Kommunikation immer wichtiger werden, wird dieses Buch einen wesentlichen Beitrag zu diesen Entwicklungen leisten.
