Description
Heritage Critical Approaches by Rodney Harrison provides a critical account of the emergence of heritage studies as an interdisciplinary field of academic study. This book examines the global phenomenon of heritage, from its origins among enthusiasts and specialists to its current status as a universally cherished concept. The author takes an interdisciplinary approach to understanding heritage, encompassing both tangible and intangible aspects, and explores how it has been classified, perceived, and managed in contemporary societies. The book also considers the impact of globalization on heritage, particularly during the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. By providing a critical analysis of the concept of heritage, this book offers a toolkit of concepts for studying this global obsession, making it an essential resource for scholars and researchers in social science and archaeology.
