UNESCO RECOMMENDATION ON THE PROTECTION OF HISTORICAL AND TRADITIONAL UNITS AND THEIR ROLE IN CONTEMPORARY LIFE

Abstract

Cultural heritage, together with natural heritage, forms the basis of an integral approach to the protection of these treasures of humans. This implies national and international legal protection. In accordance with the adopted rules and obligations arising from them, it is necessary to take the necessary measures for their implementation in the practice of protection. It is common for cultural and natural heritage to be considered as one entity. They encompass all the works of these two entities. Both those of lesser value and those of representative value.This first category, despite the fact that they have, respectively, acquired a certain value and become part of the ambient entity, conditionally by the very act, receives special or additional protection. Anthropocentric model of protection through general models of accepted forms the usable dimensions of the abovementioned goods do not meet the principles of sustainable development. Such a model would include the achievements of science and the entire population to the extent necessary. Financial assistance from individuals and the private sector would not be excluded.
