versión impresa ISSN 1657-9763
Resumen
ACEVEDO, Fernando. Cultural elitism, populist demagogy or aseptic technocracy? On the legitimation in the determination of local cultural heritage. Apuntes [online]. 2011, vol.24, n.2, pp.138-151. ISSN 1657-9763.
The present text succintly exposes both the basis, rather theoretical and methodological, and the justification, mostly political, of a socio-anthropological research which purpose was to identify the immaterial cultural patrimony of Minas de Corrales, a small town from the North of Uruguay. In the course of the research some deeply problematic issues emerged. Its formulation intends to generate a debate about the conditions of the attribution of patrimonial value to certain cultural objects and its implications, among those interested in cultural policies and patrimonial management as well as among those who have focused cultural identity and its collective construction from an academic approach. In this aspect two questions are particularly difficult to elucidate: to whom rightly belongs the power to define which cultural objects possess a patrimonial value? Based on what criteria of epistemological pertinence and social legitimation someone -any individual such as oneself- can attribute to himself the power to establish which objects possess a patrimonial value and which ones do not?
