The present work consists in a study about the dialectic of modern relations on heritage valuation from the inscription of Pampulha’s Architectural Ensemble as an UNESCO world heritage. It aims to observe the behaviour of postmodern man towards “the cult of monuments”, which, from the 1972s, gains global reach with the Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage (1972), since the creation of the World Heritage Center and the World Heritage List, enabling the recognition of monuments as world heritage by the international community. Through analysis of interviews of important actors that participated in the inscription of Pampulha’s Architectural Ensemble as World Heritage, identified in media vehicles, point a thesis: the Pampulha World Heritage is an object of local tourist economy promotion. Thus identified the cultural dynamic in this monuments appropriation processes, through the logic of flexible capitalism in a global society that transforms heritage in commodity, this work proposes to carry out an analysis of Pampulha’s Architectural Ensemble inscription process to verify the contradictory, by a dialectic process that identifies possible antithesis to be applied, with the aim of point possible paths to be followed in pursuit of a synthesis. The purpose of this research is to come closer to answer on whether the inscription of Pampulha’s Architectural Ensemble as a world heritage by UNESCO is, in fact, an action that aims a greater protection of the good or a way to potentialize its value as a commodity and as an element of urban marketing. Futhermore, is an attempt of unveil the values that gains emphasis in this “postmodern cult of monuments”.
