N2  - With this paper I make a proposal for the contextualisation
of intangible cultural heritage (ICH) in the interdisciplinary
field of heritage studies and museology, drawing on early
research conducted during my internship at UNESCO and
the first years of my doctorate. I examine emerging
conceptualisations of the term starting with the national
legislation of Japan and Korea in the 50s and 60s, and
more recently with the interventions of UNESCO. In
addition, I assess the development of ICH in terms of the
academic/intellectual discussions around the ?alternative
heritage discourse? and the ?new museological discourse?.
Finally, drawing on interviews with Professor Patrick
Boylan, Dr Richard Kurin and Mr Ralph Regenvanu,
conducted in 2006-2007, I draw some preliminary
conclusions as to the wider impact of ICH on heritage and
museum theory and practice. What emerges is a critical
examination of the diverse conceptualisations and
appropriations of ICH, and of its potential to constitute a
new heritage discourse at the interface of ?universalism?
and ?particularism?
