Abstract

This paper follows the one presented in the previous volume, “Protection of ‘Intangible’ Cultural Properties ― With Focus on Folk Performing Arts,” and aims to review the system of protection of cultural properties which are intangible in Japan. Although there is an increased movement toward the protection of intangible cultural heritage throughout the world, the author thinks that Japan is not actively responding to the expectations of other nations. The reason for this seems to lie in the fact that a principle of protection that takes into consideration cultural properties of Japan which are intangible as a whole has not been constructed. Based on such an idea, the author attempts to capture integrally the protection of intangible cultural properties and that of intangible folk cultural properties, which at the present are conducted under separate systems, and to find a clue to solving various related issues. In this paper, the author first verifies the present condition of the protection of intangible cultural properties and of intangible folk cultural properties from the point of view of the system of subsidy provided by the government, and presents several issues that arise as a result. He further attempts to capture integrally the protection of these two types of cultural properties, based on a scheme of cultural properties which are intangible. In addition, he examines the issue of the system for selecting cultural properties which are intangible and for which measures should be taken for documentation. In particular he focuses on the characteristics of intangible cultural properties and intangible folk cultural properties both of which are found in folk performing arts and folk techniques, and proposes flexible application of the system of designation and the system of selection for documentation. In addition, he suggests a plan for utilizing the system of selection for documentation of intangible cultural properties as a topic for future consideration.
