At this Intergovernmental Committee, 76 items were inscribed on the “Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity”(RL) and 12 on the “List of Intangible Cultural Heritage in Need of Urgent Safeguarding”, which were nominated by the State Parties to the Convention. During the 3rd Intergovernmental Committee held in November 2008 in Istanbul, Turkey, 90 items that had been named as Masterpieces under the Proclamation of Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity in 2001, 2003 and 2005, were incorporated in the RL, so the total number of items became 166. This has led each country to make serious efforts to implement the safeguarding of inscribed items. In this paper, the author attempts to summarise various aspects of the domains of listed items on RL from the Asia-Pacific region, by focusing on traditional craftsmanship as one of the domains of intangible cultural heritage. Then the author will discuss the current situation and the function of the establishment of Category II Centres under the auspices of UNESCO within the Asia-Pacific region as specialised institutions to the Convention, which are to be established in China, Japan and Republic of Korea, as decided at the 35th Session of the General Conference last year. This will also introduce recent studies and research exchange on the activities related to safeguarding of intangible cultural heritage within the countries in the region, done by the Department of Intangible Cultural Heritage, National Research Institute for Cultural Properties in Tokyo.}, pages = {15--26}, title = {アジア太平洋地域の無形文化遺産―代表一覧表記載案件の分類と専門機関の役割―}, year = {2010} }
