Niematerialne dziedzictwo kulturowe w warunkach pandemii COVID-19. Analiza porównawcza wybranych przykładów z Polski i Białorusi
The Intangible cultural heritage in the conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic. Comparative analysis of selected examples from Poland and Belarus

Summary/Abstract: The article discusses strategies to overcome the fear of the COVID-19 pandemic and its threats in the sphere of the intangible heritage in Poland and Belarus. The strategies are presented as activities that make an adaptive use of the measures for safeguarding recommended by the Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage 2003. Activities to maintain the viability of the intangible heritage have both similarities and differences in both countries. The difference is revealed in the institutional sphere of heritage safeguarding. The similarities have a negative dimension (resignation from actions, disruptions in the transmission of knowledge) and a positive dimension (a two-model strategy of transforming traditional practices, the use of the Internet and multimedia instruments).
