Abstract

The purpose of the article is to elucidate the main stages of theoretical understanding of the protection of cultural heritage living part in the history and regulatory sphere and UNESCO role in this regard as well as in the comprehensive analysis of the current state of intangible cultural heritage protection in Ukraine. The methodology of the research is based on the historical method, which allows considering the evolution of the formation of international legal foundations for the protection of intangible cultural heritage; a comparative method by which the comparison of international and domestic practices in the preservation and promotion of intangible cultural heritage took place. The scientific novelty of the article is to be found in the clarification of management and legal issues associated with the national conditions for the implementation of the UNESCO Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage. Conclusions. The study revealed that Ukraine has delayed institutionalization of the intangible cultural heritage. Given the fact that in recent times the requirements for the inclusion of material cultural heritage objects in the UNESCO list have increased, one can predict that the same situation will befall the objects of its intangible part. Considering the above, the national government authorities who have been delegated with powers of safeguarding the intangible cultural heritage should adhere more strictly to UNESCO criteria when drafting an application for the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Representative List.
