El desarrollo humano en comunidades afrocolombianas: perspectivas del patrimonio cultural inmaterial en el marco de los ODM en San Basilio de Palenque. Periodo 2000-2012

El objetivo de este estudio de caso es analizar la tensión provocada entre el enfoque de políticas públicas en San Basilio de Palenque para alcanzar el tercer Objetivo de Desarrollo del Milenio-ODM y la salvaguardia del Patrimonio Cultural Inmaterial-PCI. Esta investigación estudia cómo el enfoque de género está o no presente, tanto en políticas públicas de salvaguardia del PCI como en las encargadas del tercer ODM, y cómo esto dificulta o facilita la obtención de ambos propósitos. Por medio del paradigma de Desarrollo Humano, en cabeza de Amartya Sen, y el análisis de los tratados internacionales y las leyes se encontraron lugares comunes, con ayuda de trabajo de campo, que impedían la armonización y correcto desarrollo tanto del tercer ODM como de la salvaguardia del PCI en este territorio.

Patrimonio natural, patrimonio cultural = Natural Heritage, Cultural Heritage.

A survey of terahertz applications in cultural heritage conservation science

The authors present a review of the advances that have been made to establish terahertz applications in the cultural heritage conservation sector over the last several years. This includes material spectroscopy, 2D and 3D imaging and tomographic studies, using a broad range of terahertz sources demonstrating the breadth and application of this burgeoning community.

Terahertz pulse imaging of stratified architectural materials for cultural heritage studies

Terahertz pulse imaging (TPI) is a novel noncontact, nondestructive technique for the examination of cultural heritage artifacts. It has the advantage of broadband spectral range, time-of-flight depth resolution, and penetration through optically opaque materials. Fiber-coupled, portable, time-domain terahertz systems have enabled this technique to move out of the laboratory and into the field. Much like the rings of a tree, stratified architectural materials give the chronology of their environmental and aesthetic history. This work concentrates on laboratory models of stratified mosaics and fresco paintings, specimens extracted from a neolithic excavation site in Catalhoyuk, Turkey, and specimens measured at the medieval Eglise de Saint Jean-Baptiste in Vif, France. Preparatory spectroscopic studies of various composite materials, including lime, gypsum and clay plasters are presented to enhance the interpretation of results and with the intent to aid future computer simulations of the TPI of stratified architectural material. The breadth of the sample range is a demonstration of the cultural demand and public interest in the life history of buildings. The results are an illustration of the potential role of TPI in providing both a chronological history of buildings and in the visualization of obscured wall paintings and mosaics.

Image retrieval techniques for THz applications in cultural heritage

Techniques to retrieve reliable images from complicated objects are described, overcoming problems introduced by uneven surfaces, giving enhanced depth resolution and improving image contrast. The techniques are illustrated with application to THz imaging of concealed wall paintings.

Cultural heritage as a document: transdisciplinary reflections to new horizons in Information Science

The aim of this paper is to give an overview of the issues and actions on the Brazilian cultural heritage and then to discuss contributions as well as relationships that may be established from the principles of Information Science. The first item is concerned with the relationship between heritage and the concept of document, the second relates the documentary processes and the information scientist and finally, an approach of cultural heritage mediation and appropriation is presented.
