Intangible Cultural Heritage Reproduction and Revitalization: Value Feedback, Practice, and Exploration Based on the IPA Model

Abstract

Intangible cultural heritage has a unique value. It is very important to evaluate and discover the value of intangible cultural heritage. Therefore, referring to the relevant references of countries around the world, this paper compares the research status of countries around the world with the development trend of China’s intangible cultural heritage, indicating that the network resources of intangible cultural heritage can be converted into cultural capital according to the basic theory of cultural capital and then get an economic value. The use value of intangible cultural heritage is analyzed and considered according to IPA entity model analysis, kernel density estimation (KDE), and gray correlation calculation (calculated by using IPA analysis conclusion). Among them, because intangible cultural heritage cannot be measured and verified immediately, indirect measurement verification is carried out by selecting indirect indicators such as the total number of intangible cultural heritage and the development trend of intangible cultural heritage tourism. Based on the gray correlation analysis of the total number and relative density of national intangible cultural heritage and the intangible cultural heritage tourism and related industrial chains, the following proposals for the development trend of intangible cultural heritage are clearly put forward as follows: (1) Further excavate the meaning of “non-material property tourism” and increase the scope of development and design of cultural and art tourism network resources. (2) Make full use of the guiding effect of government departments on “intangible cultural heritage tourism,” and improve the normalization of the combination of culture, art, and tourism. (3) Expand the whole industrial chain of “intangible cultural heritage tourism” in an orderly manner, and promote the concept of coordinated and sustainable development of cultural and art tourism.

Coupling Coordination between Cultural Heritage Protection and Tourism Development: The Case of China

“…Positively speaking, TD means increasing tourism production and consumption; some tourism facilities and revenues can be applied to CHP activities, which promotes the re-production and reprotection of cultural heritages [15]. Moreover, TD means increasing the number of tourists, some of whom may actively participate in CHP activities with innovative approaches; this is beneficial to protecting cultural heritages effectively [16]. In addition, tourists' experiences also affect their attitudes towards CHP and their behaviors towards protecting cultural heritages; better tourist experiences lead to better CHP activities [17].…”

Research on the Educational Tourism Development of Intangible Cultural Heritage: Suitability, Spatial Pattern, and Obstacle Factor

“…On one hand, integrating ICHs into educational tourism will inject funds into the protection of ICHs, overcome the current unfavorable situation of the shrinking market for ICHs, and help create a modern development environment and living space suitable for ICHs. On the other hand, it is conducive to cultivating the audience of ICHs, awakening the public's awareness of protecting ICHs, and expanding the scope of inheritors of ICHs [7,8].…”

“…Secondly, the development strategy should be carried out based on stakeholders, policy systems, laws and regulations, and product design from the perspective of demand [11,13,14]. Thirdly, the systems should be improved including the tourism management system, infrastructure system, and tourism service system [8]. The existing studies have made many beneficial achievements in the tourism development of ICH, but less attention has been paid to educational tourism development.…”

The Value of Traditional Fishing from the Perspective of Cultural Heritage: A Case Study of Seine Fishing in Ichinomiya-cho, Kujukuri-hama

“…We review the literature on how to measure the value of intangible cultural heritage (ICH). Masoud and Xiao investigated the economic value brought by ICH as cultural capital [12,13] and Heredia-Carroza designs an empirical methodology to measure the perceived value of ICH [14]. Lenzerini noted that understanding the intrinsic meaning and value of ICH requires an understanding of human factors such as self-identification, the history and social evolution of the group corresponding to the heritage and the close connection of the heritage with the unique identity of its creators and holders [15].…”
