ARCLG275 Archaeological Heritage Management in Asia
The first session will explore the international context and practise of heritage
management. International Charters can help to define important notions of
significance, embracing both the tangible and the intangible. Critical to this, and
reflected in many of the more recent charters and conventions, are the processes of
establishing and assessing values, and using values to shape and inform management
systems and decision-making. We will explore how these international practices have
led of a number of management planning models, and the roles and impacts these
have had on Asian resource management.
A number of countries in the Asia region now have charters or principles to underpin
approaches to conserving and managing cultural heritage resources. The integrity of
heritage places and their continuing authenticity are fundamental concerns,
particularly as the notion of heritage embraces traditions and everyday places.
