Sustentabilidade econômica no patrimônio histórico arquitetônico

Abstract

The central axis of the preservation of historical and artistic heritage was established by Decree-Law n. 25, 1937, when he instituted the tipping as a form of protection and preservation of heritage. This axis was changed only with the promulgation of the Constitution of the Federative Republic of Brazil in 1988, when she has standardized the Government must act under various forms of intervention in the property, not only for tipping, but by various forms of precaution, aimed at protection and preservation of cultural heritage of Brazil. In this sense, using the methodology and theory of action and Base Approach, Procedure and Technical Strategy, this monograph presents a brief overview on the international heritage preservation, goes through considerations of the evolution of this issue in Brazil, and establishes as a reference study the City of Santa Maria/ RS. Still, this work considers the common perception that the mere tipping of the property is not the appropriate way to ensure the perpetuation of the ward property, since by itself does not have the conditions for such economic sustainability. From this, and with the conceptual definition of economic sustainability in the architectural heritage, the analysis is proposed as the current legislation, outlining the options provided in the legislation and proposing some alternatives, since the Magna Carta is not exhaustive as the possibilities of heritage preservation, in order to achieve the legislative purpose of historic preservation.
