Abstract

The promotion of indigenous cultural rights – a notion entangled with the concept of “indigenous cultural heritage” – as a public discourse settled within current sociopolitical indigenous claims, remains as an underdeveloped topic in Chile. This, despite the full consensus that exists around the pressing need to revitalize and protect indigenous cultural systems (such as languages, traditions, crafts, time and space notions, among many others), which have allowed ethnic identities to remain active and distinguishable through time. By adopting an indigenous human rights perspective, the paper will explore the current situation of indigenous peoples’ cultural rights within the Chilean and international applicable legislation. It will also suggest opportunities for the protection of these rights within the legal framework in force in Chile.

Keywords:

Indigenous cultural heritage, indigenous cultural human rights, intellectual property, indigenous traditional knowledge and cultural expressions
