Abstract The study of carnivals as cultural heritage allows rethink them as privileged fields to analyse coexistence of interests, cultural differences and disputes con-cerning such a particular intangible patrimony. In this sense, the aim of this paper is to focus on the Bolivian carnivals carried out in Argentina, especially taking into account those which are held in cities considered of intermediate type, in order to reflect on mobility, remeaning and valorization of certain cultural expressions and manifestations that takes place thousands of kilometers from their place of origin. It was considered necessary to incorporate the analysis of leading cases, such as the carnivals of Barranquillas in Colombia and Oruro in Bolivia, recognized as World Heritage, whose processes of becoming heritage have been remarkable and have reached a national and international valuation. This allows broaden perspectives of comparison and discussion, as the management experience of these carnivals allows to shed light on central issues such as the safeguarding of this intangible heritage as well as the parti-cipation of groups and communities involved.

Palabras clave : carnival; heritage; identity; participative management.
