(some col.), col. maps ; 25 cmISBN: 9780857023896 (hbk.); 9780857023902 (pbk.)Other title: Heritage, memory and identitySubject(s): Culture and globalization | Arts and globalizationDDC classification: 303.482 Summary: "Heritage, memory, and identity are closely connected keywords of our time, each endowed with considerable rhetorical power. Different human groups define certain objects and practices as 'heritage'; they envision heritage to reflect some form of collective memory, either lived or imagined; and they combine both to construct cultural identities. Today, the three terms raise conjoined issues of practice, policy and politics in an increasingly globalized world. Bringing together a truly global range of scholars, this volume explores heritage, memory, and identity through a diverse set of subjects, including heritage sites, practices of memorialization, museums, sites of contestation, and human rights."--Publisher description.
