Research handbook on contemporary intangible cultural heritage : law and heritage - Cheltenham, UK Edward Elgar 2018 - ix, 434p. 24cm.

Bringing together key insights from expert legal and heritage academics and practitioners, this book explores the existence and safeguarding of contemporary forms of intangible cultural heritage (ICH). Providing a detailed analysis of the international legal frameworks relevant to ICH, the contributing authors then go on to challenge the pervasive view that heritage is about 'old' tangible objects by highlighting the existence, role and importance of contemporary forms of ICH to modern society.
