Abstract

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 grammatical incoherence, and the “work” that these strange terms, so often used in tandem, do to domesticate what are for some people the uncomfortable implications of the concept of intangible cultural heritage. In developing our argument, the paper draws on a range of policy and academic documents to illustrate the extent of the professional and academic unease with the concept of intangible heritage, and the degree to which this unease unintentionally fosters the maintenance of the authorized heritage discourse.

“非物质价值观”的重言论与对非物质文化遗产的误读

摘要本文探讨了“非物质价值”和“有形价值”这两个术语的出现、传播和使用之间的矛盾。我们考察了它们在逻辑和语法上的不连贯性，以及这些经常同时使用的奇怪术语为使一些人感到不适的非物质文化遗产概念的含义本土化所做的“工作”。在阐述我们的论点时，本文引用了一系列政策和学术文件，以说明专业和学术界对非物质遗产概念的不安程度，以及这种不安在多大程度上无意中助长了对授权遗产话语的维护。

期刊介绍： Heritage & Society is a global, peer-reviewed journal that provides a forum for scholarly, professional, and community reflection on the cultural, political, and economic impacts of heritage on contemporary society. We seek to examine the current social roles of collective memory, historic preservation, cultural resource management, public interpretation, cultural preservation and revitalization, sites of conscience, diasporic heritage, education, legal/legislative developments, cultural heritage ethics, and central heritage concepts such as authenticity, significance, and value. The journal provides an engaging forum about tangible and intangible heritage for those who work with international and governmental organizations, academic institutions, private heritage consulting and CRM firms, and local, associated, and indigenous communities. With a special emphasis on social science approaches and an international perspective, the journal will facilitate lively, critical discussion and dissemination of practical data among heritage professionals, planners, policymakers, and community leaders.
