DESCRIPTION
In a world increasingly sanitised by globlisation, the concept of conservation of ethnological heritage becomes even more revelant. The process of french decolonisation generated new cultural markers, which constituted the ethos of a particular group or a community, deserved the same degree of recognisation and protection as that recorded to natural diversity. The hazards posed by the growing tentacles of mainstream culture were also become increasingly evident.
