Develops the concept of information considerations and seek to draw up a legal definition of patrimonial information, and, from then on, perform a discussion seeking to analyse aspects that define the intangible cultural heritage. From the methodological point of view will adopt the technique of content analysis in the perspective of Bardin. Exposes comments on possible barriers or feasibility of an expansion of that concept.
