Description
Summary:"Cultural Heritage and the Future brings together an international group of scholars and experts to consider the relationship between cultural heritage and the future. Drawing on case studies from around the world, the contributing authors insist that cultural heritage and the future are deeply and inherently linked. Chapters within the volume also argue that the development of future-thinking should be a priority for academics, students and those working in the wider professional heritage sector. The future has never before attracted substantial research and debate within heritage studies and heritage management, and this book addresses this lacuna by offering a balance of theoretical and empirical content that will stimulate multidisciplinary debate in the burgeoning field of critical heritage studies. Cultural Heritage and the Future questions how we can communicate with future generations through heritage and will be of great interest to academics and students working in the fields of museum and heritage studies, archaeology, anthropology, sociology, history and geography. Those working in the heritage professions will also find much to interest them within the pages of this book"--
Item Description:"The present volume was originally devised in 2012, related to a session on the same topic which we coorganised for the First Conference of the Association of Critical Heritage Studies in Gothenburg, Sweden."--Preface.
