Resumen
ANNECCHIARICO, Milena. Afro-argentine cultural heritage: the UNESCO "slave-route" in Argentina. Rev. Mus. Antropol. [online]. 2018, vol.11, n.1, pp.229-240. ISSN 1852-060X.
Abstract This article analyzes the trajectory of the UNESCO "Slave Route" program in Argentina. This program promotes research on the transatlantic slave trade of Africans, the contemporary forms of resistance and the valorization of memory sites. It also seeks for the recognition of present Afro-descendant communities. The article focuses on the recent implementation of this program in Argentina, placing the memory of slavery it in the context of national and international cultural policies of patrimonialization. From a local perspective, it highlights some aspects and problems that help to understand the scope and limits of cultural and heritage policies. The research on the experience of the Chapel of Los Negros de Chascomús, one of the memory sites of slavery declared within the framework of the program, shows tensions and ambivalences among the different actors involved in this kind of culture policies.
