The texts presented in this book trace the rise of culture as a major concern for development, international diplomacy, sustainability and national politics over the past two decades. As a major participant in anthropological field research, advocate for cultural freedom and decision-maker in international programs on culture, the author gives a firsthand account of the trade-offs, the contradictions and the management of consensus in these fields. She argues that the constitutive, functional and instrumental aspects of cultural narratives call for a more in-depth understanding of knowledge, leading to cultural and social sustainability in the framework of a "new worlding". Many of the texts gathered here were presented at the United Nations General Assembly and other high-level international meetings. Most of the texts are unpublished; some were first published in Spanish and are now available in English for the first time.

A decade after the approval of the UNESCO 2003 Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH), the concept has gained wide acceptance at the local, national and international levels. Communities are recognizing and celebrating their Intangible Heritage; governments are devoting important efforts to the construction of national inventories; and anthropologists and professionals from different disciplines are forming a new field of study. The ten chapters of this book include the peer-reviewed papers of the First Planning Meeting of the International Social Science Council’s Commission on Research on ICH, which was held at the Centro Regional de Investigaciones Multidisciplinarias (UNAM) in Cuernavaca, Mexico in 2012. The papers are based on fieldwork and direct involvement in assessing and reconceptualizing the outcomes of the UNESCO Convention. The report in Appendix 1 highlights the main points raised during the sessions.

L’élevage évolue et s’industrialise. D’aucuns évoquent même la “fabrique des animaux”, un sujet d’actualité qui soulève des questions aussi bien éthiques, juridiques, écologiques et économiques que de santé publique… Réalisés par le photographe Yann Arthus-Bertrand, de l’Académie des Beaux-Arts, considéré comme l’un des pionniers de l’engagement en faveur de l’environnement, les portraits d’animaux et d’éleveurs réunis dans cet ouvrage ouvrent une réflexion sur les enjeux de l’élevage contemporain et sur notre posture de consommateur. Complété de l’avis d’experts sur le thème de l’économie des bêtes, ce panorama photographique s’inscrit dans le patrimoine de l’Art faber, qui rassemble les œuvres d’art ayant pour thème les mondes économiques. Il inaugure la collection des “Cahiers de l’Art faber” dédiée aux expressions contemporaines de l’Art faber.

Cet ouvrage a pour objectif d'offrir un premier éclairage de l’ensemble des situations dans lesquelles les femmes sont insérées économiquement mais également les principales notions qui informent structurellement ces situations, comme celles de la division sexuelle du travail, de l’articulation entre les rapports de production domestique et les rapports de production capitalistes. La diversité culturelle et politique à l’œuvre dans les contextes géographiques variés que l’on trouvera dans cet ouvrage démontre l’invariabilité de l’exploitation du travail effectué par les femmes et la « mauvaise volonté » des planificateurs et des donateurs pour faire changer cet état de fait.
