Transhumant tracks, inner areas and cultural heritage  a109-1283 aThis paper represents the first systematization of an ethnography based on Molise in the framework of a wider interest in regional/national/global processes of heritagization and monitoring put in place in the last two decades, above all, but not exclusively, by the UNESCO framework, Council of Europe and other global contexts of conservation/valorization policies. The Region Molise, being small and relatively secluded, is particularly fit for advancing some methodological and theoretical issues.The research is focused on bio-cultural heritage and transhumance/traditional pastoralism revitalization as a cultural/tourist path, especially in the inner regions of Northern Italy, but also in the South. Moreover, transhumance has recently been reconsidered as a new form of sustainable breeding activity and a very embedded practice in the local.  a2039-2362
