  • Can UNESCO, the United Nations Education, Scientific, and Cultural Organization, help local cultural traditions around the world survive and even flourish in the face of globalization? No one really knows, but with a new International Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage it may be better equipped to do so. At the biennial meeting of its General Conference in Paris on 17 October 2003 some 120 member nations voted for the multilateral treaty. No one voted against it; only a handful of nations abstained�Australia, Canada, Great Britain, Switzerland, and the United States among them. For the convention to now become international law it needs to be ratified by 30 states parties. This article considers the nature of intangible cultural heritage, the approach, consequences, problems and possibilities suggested by the new Convention
