História, tombamento e educação patrimonial: instrumentos jurídicos e educativos para a proteção cultural

Abstract

This work explores the interrelationship between property rights, heritage listing (tombamento), and the preservation of cultural heritage in Brazil, highlighting heritage education as a tool for raising awareness. Based on the understanding that property rights have evolved over time to include cultural and historical elements, the study addresses the tensions that arise when the protection of these assets imposes limitations on the exercise of these rights, especially in the context of resistance from property owners and society regarding imposed restrictions. In this regard, the general objective of this research is to discuss this interrelationship and propose the creation of educational tools to raise society's awareness of the importance of preserving cultural heritage. Among the specific objectives are exploring the concept of property and its limitations in the context of heritage listing, as well as identifying preservation strategies and the challenges faced. To achieve these aims, the methodology adopted is qualitative and exploratory, combining literature review and document analysis, with a focus on Brazilian heritage listing legislation and normative documents for heritage protection. As an educational product, the development of an educational booklet is highlighted, aiming to facilitate the dissemination of knowledge about the rights and duties of property owners and the significance of heritage for society. The results indicate a lack of a consolidated culture of heritage education in Brazil, which leads to disinterest in the protection of listed assets and resistance to the restrictions imposed by heritage listing. Considering this, the educational booklet serves as a tool with the potential to fill this gap, promoting an understanding that preserving cultural heritage is a collective duty. It is concluded, therefore, that the integration of law and heritage education can mitigate conflicts between private interests and cultural protection, fostering an active and collaborative stance in preserving these assets for future generations.
