The role of cultural heritage conservation has proven beneficial for the development of cities and communities. However, a lack of systematic assessment methodologies for adequate consideration of ...the gap between sustainable urban development and the conservation of cultural heritage, has been long noted by academia. This paper contributes to bridge this knowledge gap, by discussing the state of the practice from the urban perspective on the integration of cultural heritage as mean for sustainable development (SD). With a mixed-methodology, 19 reports on urban development, management and competitiveness were analyzed. The research identified three levels of inclusion: (1) at the strategic level; (2) at the operational level; (3) at the monitoring level. From the urban development perspective, two main approaches to heritage were identified: as cultural capital and as an urban phenomena requiring tailored urban management. Current links to the sustainability pillars and correlations of cultural heritage with wider urban factors are discussed. Conclusions highlight that a more thorough conceptualization and clearer correlation between cultural heritage management with wider urban phenomena is yet to be developed. Therefore, more efficient tools and more appropriate methodologies to correlate cultural heritage protection as an urban resource are still lacking.
•Urban monitoring tools acknowledge cultural heritage at the strategic, operational and monitoring level.•Cultural heritage bridges with sustainability dimensions are widely discussed but seldom proven.•Cultural heritage is understood as a competitive resource in the global urban market requiring a tailored management.•Existing indicators target the availability of heritage resources rather than the sustainability of its management.
The aim of this paper was to determine the influence of four dimensions of sustainability (environment, economic, socio-cultural and institutional) on satisfaction in the context of residents in the ...UNESCO heritage place. Data was collected from resident’s regarding the three UNESCO world heritages in Delhi. These heritage sites are Red Fort, Qutub Minar, and Humayun Tomb. The responses were taken from 220 residents of Delhi. Data were analyzed by using structural equation modeling by performing partial least squares (PLS). The findings of this study state that economic, socio-cultural and institution positively influence the residents’ satisfaction whereas the environmental dimension of sustainability was not found a significant predictor of residents’ satisfaction. This study provides implications for local residents’, government and private players. There is a need to put more consideration on economic dimension so that benefits gets transfer to local community and economic leakages get reduced. This study has conducted in Indian context so the findings can’t be generalized for other countries. This is one of the few studies which have conducted in UNESCO heritage sites contexts in India.
In the literature on the heritage of the post-migration areas of south-eastern Poland, as well as in the nationwide information space, too little attention is paid to the Ukrainian legacy. Although ...since 1989, the topic has been discussed more often and more freely, and the knowledge in this area has significantly expanded, still the issue of Ukrainian heritage is underrepresented in scientific and journalistic narratives and public administration practices of eastern border regions Polish. Within the present borders of Poland, there are over a thousand postUkrainian localities, whose tangible and intangible heritage has been destroyed, forgotten, and repressed from social consciousness, it has become invisible. In this article we try to explain how this happened. We ask about the decisions, people, and events that caused the Ukrainian in Poland to become a symbolic after - post-Ukrainian.
A large number of intangible cultural heritages (ICH), In the development process of the evolution of world history, have been born. In addition, these heritages preserve the most precious part of ...historical civilization and have high research value. However, in social modernization, these ICHs are gradually being destroyed, and their preservation is becoming increasingly difficult. The protection of ICH cannot be relaxed at any moment. With the progress of science and technology, digital technology has become one of the means to protect ICH, and also explored new ways for the inheritance of ICH. Therefore, it is necessary to use modern information technology to store and preserve ICH. With the rapid development of the information age, digital implantation technology has gradually entered all aspects of life. This technology was effectively applied to preserve animation in the early days effectively, later researchers found that this technology has an excellent effect on the preservation of ICH, so it has been widely used. This paper firstly summarizes the current domestic ICH protection situation and the corresponding foreign policies. On this basis, digital implantation is applied to the relevant core technologies of ICH protection. The Digital implantation technology model of ICH is analyzed to protect the current ICH effectively and will promote the sustainable development of ICH.
Authentic intangible cultural heritage (ICH) provides a community with a unique selling point in the globally competitive tourism industry. The process of commodification of ICH, however, has ...threatened its authenticity and thus sustainable tourism approaches are required to achieve successful transmission and promotion of ICH as a sustainable tourism resource. This paper explores the priorities of ICH practitioners in relation to the development of ICH as a sustainable tourism resource, by utilising South Korea as a case study. The results revealed that from the ICH practitioners' perspectives, authenticity is a holistic notion integrating the transmitted customs, inherited meanings and the practitioners' identities. ICH practitioners agree with the potential positive symbiotic relationship between transmission of authentic ICH and promotion of ICH as a tourism resource. To achieve the positive symbiotic relationship, locals' awareness of ICH, ICH practitioner empowerment and parallel development between tourism development and transmission of ICH are necessary. To date, the practitioner approach to the authenticity of ICH and ICH as a sustainable tourism resource is little explored in the literature, thus this paper makes a valuable addition to the area of sustainable heritage tourism.
Abstract Socio-environmental conflicts are one of the main motivators of public debate, mobilization, and social organization in Latin America, questioning the current extractivist and development ...model while looking for alternatives that allow the continuity of life. The ancestral peoples of the continent claim their territorial rights, promulgating a model of community and harmonious life such as "good living." Keywords: Mapuche worldview, socio-environmental conflict, nature conservation, Buenos Aires province. En Olavarría, sin embargo, aún no se cuenta con ninguna figura legal de conservación ni planificación territorial que se ocupe de la preservación de espacios significativos para la población.
Prezentowany artykuł to bezpośrednie odniesienie do książki Siergieja Lebiediewa Granica zapomnienia, w której autor występuje równocześnie jako narrator i główny bohater. Powieści nie można ...analizować inaczej jak tylko poprzez rozszyfrowanie nagromadzonych w niej symboli. Jedna z warstw utworu dotyczy duchowego dojrzewania bohatera, dla którego impulsem jest pojawienie się w jego dzieciństwie demonicznego Drugiego Dziadka. Pragnąc rozwiązać tajemnicę tego ostatniego, narrator dociera do świata stalinowskich łagrów. Zabudowania po nich zostały zniszczone, sprawców nie osądzono, ludziom wygodniej jest o nich zapomnieć. Bohater, chcąc odtworzyć dziedzictwo przodków, staje się swego rodzaju kolekcjonerem: zbiera przedmioty z przeszłości, kolekcjonuje wspomnienia uczestników tragicznych wydarzeń, ich pamiętniki… W ten sposób to, co było nakłada się na teraźniejszość i rzutuje w przyszłość. Aby przekroczyć granicę zapomnienia, należy przełamać strach i konformizm, nauczyć się odpowiedzialności i, wykorzystując pamięć kulturową, dotrzeć do Prawdy.
The Oblivion and Manipulated Memory (“The Limit of Forgetting” by Sergey Lebedev)
The article presented here is a direct reference to Sergei Lebedev’s book The Limit of Forgetting, in which the author acts simultaneously as narrator and main character. The novel cannot be analysed except by deciphering the symbols accumulated in it. One of the layers of the work concerns the spiritual development of the protagonist, the impetus for which is the appearance of a demonic Second Grandfather in his childhood. Desiring to solve the mystery of the latter, the narrator reaches the world of Stalinist camps. The buildings left behind were destroyed, the perpetrators have not been brought to justice, people are more comfortable to forget about them. The protagonist, wanting to recreate the legacy of his ancestors, becomes a kind of collector: he collects objects from the past, collects memories of participants in tragic events, their diaries... In this way, the past overlaps with the present and is projected into the future. In order to cross the boundary of oblivion, it is necessary to overcome fear and conformity, learn responsibility and, using cultural memory, reach the Truth.
