A region's socioeconomic and political conditions greatly influence the interaction between human settlements and natural landscapes. The relationship between man and landscape is, to a great extent, ...evident in regions where economic development relies on mineral sources. In that regard, the city of Tuzla in Bosnia and Herzegovina offers a unique narrative about the value of salt as an administrative and economic tool. In addition, regime changes conditioned the formation of an industrial network that emerged around salt and coal deposits. The coal and salt industries,thus, gained a leading role in Tuzla's economic development between 1884 and 1992. After 1992, war destruction and changes in society contributed to the transition from secondary to the tertiary economic sector. The resulting high unemployment rate became the primary problem. Therefore, the significance of the buildings and sites, which make up the historically and technologically connected network of Tuzla's industrial heritage, has not yet been determined. Guided by international principles for the valorization of cultural and historical heritage, this article aims to identify industrial heritage in the municipality of Tuzla and holistically evaluate their cultural and historical significance for preserving the identity ofits population.
In the reality of private properties embedded in a free market economy, the very fact of providing an administrative protection to the building of special value can be problematic. The possibilities ...of challenging and revoking such decisions are often used by property owners. Conflicts between the conservator – a state administration official trying to provide legal protection to a monument – and the owner – an investor who pushes to achieve the intended investment goal regardless of the cultural value of the place – are extremely strong. It is worth noting, however, that according to the provisions of Article 5 of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland, the direct stakeholder of the preservation of the cultural heritage is the entire society. Therefore, it is worth analysing whether public opinion is considered during conflict situations related to the protection of built heritage. To this end, a case study was conducted, that considered a conflict situation occurring during the procedure of entering the former tender building (roundhouse) into the Register of Immovable Monuments of the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship.
The accepted Sustainable Development Goals aim at reorienting the tourism industry to sustainable tourism and enhancing post-industrial tourism. In this case, it is necessary to identify the ...statistically significant determinants which affect post-industrial tourism development. In this paper, we aim to analyse: (1) the impact of economic and environmental dimensions, and of digital marketing on supporting post-industrial tourism development and (2) the difference between attitude to post-industrial tourism on the gender, age, and education dimensions and digital channels on post-industrial tourism development. The data was collected from questioning 2334 respondents during April–November 2020. The study applied the following methods: frequencies, percentages, t-test, and one-way ANOVA and multiple regression analysis. The findings confirmed the statistically significant impact of the economic and environmental dimensions, as well as digital marketing on post-industrial tourism development. The results of the analysis justified that digital marketing was a catalysator of post-industrial tourism development. In addition, the findings confirmed that there is no difference in attitudes towards post-industrial tourism with respect to the dimensions of age, gender, and education.
This study critically examines the transformation of industrial chimneys into monuments within Barcelona's deindustrializing urban landscapes. Since the 1970s, redevelopment contexts and reimaging ...strategies have led to the conservation of industrial chimneys as public art and historic monuments. This paper explores the intersection of urban memory, heritage, and transformation in Barcelona, highlighting the absence of a coherent ‘Authorized Heritage Discourse’ and the resulting ambiguity in the meaning of these monuments. Analyzing this unique heritage practice, the study considers its impact on historic memory and working-class identity within the city's urban fabric. The research situates chimney-monuments within broader discussions on postindustrial redevelopment, urban design, heritage conservation, and public memory amidst deindustrialization. By examining the symbolic and material dimensions of industrial chimneys within Barcelona's political-economic shifts and contemporary social movements, the paper unpacks their polysemic meanings. This analysis contributes to local debates and reflects broader European trends. The study questions how these monuments are integrated into working-class memory politics and shifting heritage regimes. Recognizing that historic monuments are dynamic material and cultural processes subject to ongoing resignification, the paper concludes with a discussion on the potential roles of insurgent heritage practices in connecting past and present social struggles.
•Examines how Barcelona's industrial chimneys have been repurposed amidst deindustrialization and urban redevelopment.•Analyzes how these chimney-monuments influence historic memory and working-class identity in the city.•Discusses the lack of a coherent heritage discourse and the resulting debates among historians, activists, and urban designers.•Investigates public perceptions through surveys and an exhibition, emphasizing industrial pasts and working-class landscapes.•Highlights the evolution of Barcelona's heritage policies and the role of urban design in preserving landmarks, influenced by working-class memory activism.

In the process of urban development, a large number of industrial heritages are in needs of being renovated as a result of the failure of meeting new needs. However, there has not yet formed an ...innovative and sustainable update design process. Based on the analysis of the problems existing in the renewal and reconstruction of industrial heritages, this paper, hereinafter, will establish an innovative design system by way of introducing extenics and BIM and combining the formalized and innovative advantages of extenics and the characteristics of BIM: information storage, processing and visual programming. In combination with the design of practical cases, this essay conducted the system, to verify its rationality and effectiveness; to discover limitations in its operation, and as the ultimate purpose, to propose directions for further research.

The article discusses the methods of protecting historic windmills and recognising them as valuable objects of industrial heritage. Therefore, examples of attempts to restore windmills as working ...mills after 2010 are discussed. Translocation combined with comprehensive renovation can be an effective and desirable method of conservation for historic windmills with a wooden structure, as it enables the restitution of these facilities as operating mills. However, one should be aware of the risks associated with this type of activity: primarily the risk of losing the historic, original substance of the mill and changing its landscape context. An important problem is the safety of the dynamic exhibition and the lack of professionals – millers specialised in the field of drive mills, who would be able to not only set up the technological process but also maintain the machines included in it on an ongoing basis. The following part of the article discusses 12 examples of attempts to restart historic windmills. These examples are divided into two categories of objects: windmills with an alternative, modern electric drive; windmills with the ability to work using only wind power. The analysed examples of windmill conservation and reactivation provide the basis for formulating lessons for future projects in Poland and abroad.

•Polar and parent PAHs were widespread in Newcastle soils of different land uses.•Concentrations of parent PAHs were generally higher than those of polar PAHs.•Excess Lifetime Cancer ...Risk from incidental soil ingestion was negligible.
Knowledge about polar derivatives of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in soils is limited despite the extensive study of the environmental presence and persistence of non-polar parent PAHs. Polar PAHs have greater potential to be more toxic at low environmental concentrations compared to their homocyclic analogues. For both polar and non-polar PAHs, combustion of fossil fuels is often the main source especially in industrialised environments. This study investigated the concentration profiles of PAHs and its associated polar PAHs such as nitrated PAHs (NPAHs), oxygenated PAHs (oxy-PAHs) and nitrogen, sulphur and oxygen heterocyclic PAHs (N/S/O-heterocyclic PAHs) in a well-known industrial heritage city of Australia. The most abundant polar PAHs were 9-fluorenone (oxy-PAHs), 2-nitrofluorene (NPAHs) and carbazole (heterocyclic-PAHs). A positive correlation (r = 0.5, p < 0.01) between ∑13PAHs and ∑19 polar PAHs was observed, implying a possible spatial association between parent and polar PAHs. The concentrations of polar PAHs in soil samples, across various landuse patterns, were used to calculate the excess lifetime cancer risk (ELCR) from incidental ingestion of soils. The computed ELCR values ranged from 8.2*10−7 (industrial soils) to 2.3*10−6 (residential soils), indicating negligible cancer risks. This is the first known study on the occurrence and concentrations of polar and non-polar PAHs in any Australian city, and the results may serve a baseline purpose for improved risk assessment of contaminated sites.

Although there has been a large amount of study into the future of post-industrial site, there have been few efforts to synthesize and connect this research. This paper presents a systematic review ...of the international literature on the redevelopment trajectories of post-industrial land. Its aim is to consolidate existing knowledge, identify gaps and provide a solid basis for future research. We will answer the following questions: (i) what are the trends in research into the redevelopment of post-industrial sites? (ii) what factors influence their redevelopment trajectories? and (iii) how do these factors interact? To understand this, we conducted a systematic literature review, based on 71 carefully selected articles published between 2002 and 2021. Using a methodology combining statistics and content analysis, we noted an increase in research on this subject in the mid-2010s. We also observed that monocase studies were the most common, and that the most studied fields were on the Asian continent. Furthermore, we identified three main approaches: the industrial heritage approach; the brownfield approach; and the governance approach. We conclude by identifying gaps in current research trends and new research perspectives.
•Systematic review method to highlight trends.•Three main research trends: industrial heritage, brownfield and governance.•Trajectories studies need to simultaneously consider actors, space and time.

An in-depth analysis of the spatial distribution characteristics and overall pattern of industrial heritage sites in China provides not only a comprehensive understanding of the current status of ...industrial heritage but also a reference for its protection and ongoing utilization. A total of 170 industrial heritage sites that were included in the List of National Industrial Heritage of China were selected as the research objects. Their spatial structure characteristics were quantitatively analyzed based on a kernel density analysis of ArcGIS and imbalance and Gini coefficient index of function calculations. The results show that the distribution of industrial heritage sites in China presents a strong aggregation trend and a distribution pattern of four cores, six centers, and multiple scattered points. The distribution of industrial heritage sites in 34 administrative regions is extremely imbalanced. A total of 170 industrial heritage sites are distributed across 27 administrative regions; 52.35% are concentrated in the East and Southwest divisions. According to the index definitions, this research analyzed their influencing factors from perspectives of the natural and social environments. The results show that the industrial heritage sites in China are mainly distributed in traditional agricultural and commercial areas with rich natural or water transport resources. The current study of major historical events in modern China and the growth curve of industrial heritage concludes that China’s industry has experienced five stages of development: Ancient, Beginning, Accelerated Development, Climax, and Slowdown. The geographical divisions and distribution of categories show colonial and socialist characteristics.
