In the first part, the writer outlines the legal framework established by the 2003 UNESCO Convention, examining some of its “sovereignty guarantees”. In the second part, she touches upon the particular issue of dealing with “shared ICH” within the UNESCO framework, examining possible responses to the apparent deficiencies towards its more effective safeguarding. Questioning whether ICH is an appropriate field for States to “reaffirm” their sovereignty or it intrinsically challenges the traditional concept of the sovereign State, she discusses the recognition of ICH’s cross-border character and the common concern for its safeguarding, as well as the progressive establishment of a right to ICH and the demand for a more active role of its communities in the international safeguarding system, as crucial parameters.
