Patrimonio cultural y territorio desde la gestión cultural del Club de Caminantes Cusco: un acercamiento a través de la cultura viva comunitaria

Abstract

Club de Caminantes Cusco is a non-profit cultural organization whose purpose is to disseminate, preserve and investigate the heritage of the Cusco Valley, taking hiking as an alternative education model. Thus, cultural management is presented as a means to express subjectivities through different multidisciplinary projects such as cultural walks. The objective of this article is to explain the cosmological and ideological foundations -understood from social anthropology- under which this organization was formed and is sustained, from the bibliographical review in contrast to experience, the relationship between the walker and the 'nature', and the people, elements and spaces in which the Andean man establishes a connection with it. The notion of culture as an exercise in constant invention is involved in the Club's cultural management since it allows the manager to understand the project from an ontological logic that allows him to be and do with culture. The main finding is the conception of cultural management as the integration of new perspectives on the discipline and the very concept of culture, both for managers, the public and for private and governmental entities.
