本文探讨了2005年将约旦佩特拉和瓦迪拉姆的贝都因人列入联合国教科文组织人类口述和非物质遗产代表作名录的过程。作者重点关注佩特拉周围的贝都因部落，当联合国教科文组织于1985年宣布该地区为人类有形遗产的一部分时，他们被重新安置在村庄里。遗产被视为一个“组装过程”，从较小规模的社会实体的相互作用中出现。通过重点关注这些实体在向教科文组织提交的报告和申请中关于贝都因人遗产的各种论述，人们认为，通过宣布非物质遗产的过程，文化类别得到了确定，以便符合当代的想象力、渴望和定居政策。对遗产申遗过程的调查表明，通过遗产机构相互联系而不是协调，支撑贝都因文化特定形象产生的是多种多样的、有时相互矛盾的话语。
This paper examines the process of incorporating the Bedouin of Petra and Wadi Rum in Jordan on UNESCO’s list of Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity in 2005. The author focuses on the Bedouin tribes around Petra, who were resettled in villages when UNESCO proclaimed the area part of the tangible heritage of humanity in 1985. Heritage is approached as a ‘process of assembling’ that emerges from the interactions of social entities operating on a smaller scale. By focusing on these entities’ various discourses about Bedouin heritage that are included in the reports and applications to UNESCO, it is argued that through the process of proclaiming intangible heritage, cultural categories are formulated so as to fit into contemporary imaginations, longings and settlement policies. Investigating the process of heritage inscription reveals the multiple, and at times contradictory, discourses that undergird the production of particular images of Bedouin culture through heritage institutions that interlock, rather than harmonise, them.
