Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los artículos recogidos en Visiones críticas del patrimonio cultural: discursos, prácticas y alternativas, son el resultado de un esfuerzo colectivo por articular distintas miradas sobre el patrimonio cultural y es, a su vez, una crítica a los discursos construidos en torno a él. Los artículos que componen esta obra nos acercan a importantes reflexiones críticas, metodológicas y a técnicas de investigación utilizadas en los estudios del patrimonio histórico y cultural en el contexto latinoamericano. Es nuestro interés presentar esta obra a la comunidad académica y a la sociedad como un aporte a los debates sobre el patrimonio cultural y sus múltiples representaciones e interpretaciones. Así mismo, es importante destacar que los artículos contenidos en este libro resaltan aspectos que van más allá de los que comúnmente están asociados a los procesos nacionalistas del Estado, situando la discusión en visiones críticas sobre los discursos y las prácticas que se construyen alrededor del patrimonio, para dar cabida a nuevas formas de tejer alternativas a los discursos homogenizantes del patrimonio histórico y cultural en América Latina.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study looks at artistic expressions that are often not directly related, such as art, dance, architecture and cinema. Ragghianti's study of cinema, the electronic image and art brings together a series of images under the heading "the art of vision". His theories have reinterpreted art history and continue to be relevant in the late 1990s. In this volume, architectural and set drawings, choreography sketches, theatrical maquettes, film and video installations are placed next to 200 works of major European artists of the 20th century.

Download or read book Cultural Parks and National Heritage Areas written by Pablo Alonso González and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2013-11-13 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The number of cultural parks has been steadily increasing in recent years throughout the world. But what is a cultural park? This book provides a detailed answer to this question and sets out the basis for an academic debate that moves beyond the technical narratives that have prevailed to date. It is important to open up the topic to academic scrutiny given that cultural parks are becoming widespread devices being employed by different institutions and social groups to manage and enhance cultural and natural heritage assets and landscapes. The main problem in dealing with this topic is the predominant lack of theory-grounded, critical reflection in the literature about cultural parks. These remain largely conceived as technical instruments deployed by institutions in order to solve an array of problems they must deal with. As cultural parks are generally regarded as positive and constructive tools whose performance is associated with the preservation of heritage, the overcoming of the nature/culture divide, the reinforcing of identity and memory and the strengthening of social cohesion and economic development, this book critically explores these issues through the analysis of the literature on cultural parks. In addition, it provides a novel theoretical conceptualization of cultural parks that is connected with, and underpins, a tentative methodology developed for their empirical analysis.
Download or read book Contested Cultural Heritage written by Helaine Silverman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-11-02 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cultural heritage is material – tangible and intangible – that signifies a culture’s history or legacy. It has become a venue for contestation, ranging in scale from protesting to violently claimed and destroyed. But who defines what is to be preserved and what is to be erased? As cultural heritage becomes increasingly significant across the world, the number of issues for critical analysis and, hopefully, mediation, arise. The issue stems from various groups: religious, ethnic, national, political, and others come together to claim, appropriate, use, exclude, or erase markers and manifestations of their own and others’ cultural heritage as a means for asserting, defending, or denying critical claims to power, land, and legitimacy. Can cultural heritage be well managed and promoted while at the same time kept within parameters so as to diminish contestation? The cases herein rage from Greece, Spain, Egypt, the UK, Syria, Zimbabwe, Italy, the Balkans, Bénin, and Central America.
Download or read book On Holiday written by Orvar Löfgren and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1999-10-27 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Löfgren takes us on a tour of the Western holiday world and shows how two centuries of "learning to be a tourist" have shaped our own ways of vacationing. We see how fashions in destinations have changed through the years, with popular images (written, drawn, painted, and later photographed) teaching the tourist what to look for and how to experience it. Travelers present and future will never see their cruises, treks, ecotours, round-the-world journeys, or trips to the vacation cottage or condo in quite the same way again. All our land-, sea-, and mindscapes will be the richer for Löfgren's insights.
Download or read book Urban Heritage Development and Sustainability written by Sophia Labadi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-10-23 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than half of the world’s population now live in urban areas, and cities provide the setting for contemporary challenges such as population growth, mass tourism and unequal access to socio-economic opportunities. Urban Heritage, Development and Sustainability examines the impact of these issues on urban heritage, considering innovative approaches to managing developmental pressures and focusing on how taking an ethical, inclusive and holistic approach to urban planning and heritage conservation may create a stronger basis for the sustainable growth of cities in the future. This volume is a timely analysis of current theories and practises in urban heritage, with particular reference to the conflict between, and potential reconciliation of, conservation and development goals. A global range of case studies detail a number of distinct practical approaches to heritage on international, national and local scales. Chapters reveal the disjunctions between international frameworks and national implementation and assess how internationally agreed concepts can be misused to justify unsustainable practices or to further economic globalisation and political nationalism. The exclusion of many local communities from development policies, and the subsequent erosion of their cultural heritage, is also discussed, with the collection emphasising the importance of ‘grass roots’ heritage and exploring more inclusive and culturally responsive conservation strategies. Contributions from an international group of authors, including practitioners as well as leading academics, deliver a broad and balanced coverage of this topic. Addressing the interests of both urban planners and heritage specialists, Urban Heritage, Development and Sustainability is an important addition to the field that will encourage further discourse.
Download or read book Knots like Stars written by Roberto Forns-Broggi and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2016-08-17 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knots like Stars: The ABCs of the Ecological Imagination in Our Americas is an encyclopedia of essays and aphorisms, at times personal, at times speculative and analytical, that invites readers to understand and enjoy an ecological perspective on Latin American literature and arts. It is simultaneously a summons to join creative forces with the non-human world. Through 43 key, interdependent entries from diverse environmental traditions, writing becomes a meditation on the poetry, films, and visual artistic traditions that sustain life, while opposing the actual destruction of Mesoamerican, Andean, and Amazonian biodiversity. The book will appeal to all people wanting to understand how poetic, artistic, and critical endeavors can enrich, rather than impoverish, the imperiled world around us. Since the Hispanic population and influence have increased dramatically in recent years, a better understanding of the complexity of this diverse culture will be an important asset for a sustainable and more interconnected future. This book invites its readers to expand their horizons and enjoy connections in order to build a sustainable community by integrating ecological perspectives in literature, film, and other arts.
Download or read book Future Has Other Plans written by Jon Kohl and published by Fulcrum Publishing. This book was released on 2016-12-01 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crisis has enveloped the more than 200,000 nationally and regionally protected natural and cultural heritage sites around the world. Heritage managers – those who manage natural sites such as national parks, wilderness areas, and biosphere reserves, as well as those who manage cultural sites including historic monuments, battlefields, heritage cities, and ancient rock art sites – face an urgent need to confront this crisis, and each day that they don't, more of our planet's common heritage disappears. Although heritage management and implementation suffer from a lack of money, time, personnel, information, and political will, The Future Has Other Plans argues that deeper causes to current problems lurk in the discipline itself. Drawing on decades of practical experience in global heritage management and case studies from around the world, Jon Kohl and Steve McCool provide an innovative solution for conserving these valuable protected areas. Merging interdisciplinary and evolving management paradigms, the authors introduce a new kind of holistic planning approach that integrates the practice of heritage management and conservation with operational realities.
