| Sumario: | The article approaches diverse problems in regards to the idea of cultural legacy as legacy for all. The aspirations to represent social matters as a whole, contained in various definitions of legacy, turn out to become questionable, when seen as a social construction mediated by different sorts of cultural institutions. The concern of the symbolic work made by the State conservation agencies, the capitalist market and the technical-scientific conventions, allows the conceptualization of legacy as a field of negotiations and conflicts ruled by a great leading paradox. Because in legacy, culture and its agents recognize themselves as subjects, but they actually are constituted as objects of the mentioned mediation system. |
