Contemporaneidad, turismo y patrimonio etnológico: realidad coriana y mediación etnográfica en el Bajo Guadalquivir

Since the 90 s until today, Unesco has introduced three programs related to the ethnological heritage: the system of Living Human Treasures (1993), the Proclamation of Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity (1997) and Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity (2003).The International Charter on Cultural Tourism (1999) is also added. Nevertheless, there are in Andalusia, specifically in Coria del Río in Seville province, examples without an effective vehicle for the transmission of knowledge and skills of people. Furthermore in this article is discusses how the lack of cultural transmission mechanisms for the implementation of existing laws in the field of ethnological heritage, significantly affect the conservation of cultural continuity. Also, this work shows the influences of the Anthropology of Tourism.
