metadata.value: UNESCO’s activities are dedicated to the conservation of both intangible and tangible cultural
  heritage. One of the most difficult issues in constructing a system for the protection of tangible
  cultural heritage objects is the criteria for identifying objects as cultural heritage. Obviously, it
  takes time to assess the cultural or historical value and significance of a tangible object. In most
  cases, granting the status of a cultural heritage object is assigned much later than its creation.
  However, international acts also do not contain specific requirements for how old a particular object
  should be in order to qualify it as an object of cultural heritage. UNESCO’s practice is known
  for several cases of adding to the World Heritage List relatively young sites. The Russian Cultural
  Heritage Object Act (2002), along with the laws of some other countries, establishes a specific
  age (40 years) that any object must reach in order to become a cultural heritage object. An exception
  is made only for memorial apartments and buildings (they can be attributed as objects of
  cultural heritage immediately after the death of famous personalities) and for objects of archeology
  (they must be at least 100 years old). This rule of law is mandatory, which means that it does
  not make other exceptions to the rule of 40 years. Such a rule of law significantly distinguishes
  the Russian approach from foreign legislation. On the one hand, such regulation may negatively
  affect the possibility of protecting outstanding objects from the late Soviet and early new Russian
  period. On the other hand, the approach of granting the status of cultural heritage objects to many
  relatively new objects can negatively affect urban development. The author proposes to evaluate
  and review this provision of law in order to find the optimal balance of public and private interests.
