O intangible cultural heritage it is composed by the action, memory and identity of different cultures and groups that form the Brazilian society. The analysis, by methodological approach, is made from the instruments of the National Cultural Inventory, registration and protection plan, noting that the intangible heritage to be protected cannot be analyzed in a minimalist and reductionist model of interpretation and application of existing legislation. Because it is a heritage "alive" must be protected by a different legal system, given its essentially dynamic character. At the end of the study, it was concluded that although the devices for the protection of intangible heritage (inventory, record and safeguard plan), the combination of these with the actions of the state and its Police Power is required, which in this scenario still shows shy and ineffective, given the novelty or the inefficiency of the organs that hold this responsibility.  a2316-8218
