Indigenous Peoples' Cultural Heritage

Indigenous Peoples' Cultural Heritage
By:Alexandra Xanthaki,Sanna Valkonen,Piia Nuorgam,Leena Heinämäki
Published on 2017 by Brill - Nijhoff



Indigenous rights to heritage have only recently become the subject of academic scholarship. This collection aims to fill that gap by offering the fruits of a unique conference on this topic organised by the University of Lapland with the help of the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights. The conference made clear that important information on Indigenous cultural heritage has remained unexplored or has not been adequately linked with specific actors (such as WIPO) or specific issues (such as free, prior and informed consent). Indigenous leaders explained the impact that disrespect of their cultural heritage has had on their identity, well-being and development. Experts in social sciences explained the intricacies of indigenous cultural heritage. Human rights scholars talked about the inability of current international law to fully address the injustices towards indigenous communities. Representatives of International organisations discussed new positive developments. This wealth of experiences, materials, ideas and knowledge is contained in this important volume.

Guidance on Inventory and Documentation of the Cultural Heritage

Guidance on Inventory and Documentation of the Cultural Heritage By:Ad hoc Group for Inventory and Documentation Within the Technical Co-operation and Consultancy Programme Published on 2009 by Council of Europe Improved heritage management and the inclusion of heritage in planning and sustainable development processes necessitate inventory and documentation. More than mere scientific tools recommended in international agreements, inventory and documentation play a strategic role. The complexity of the heritage items that now have to be inventoried and their interaction with our everyday living environment require the clear definition and harmonisation of practices at the European level. Through its work in the 1960s, the Council of Europe helped to lay the methodological bases for inventorying architectural, archaeological and movable heritage. The efforts to systematise the process came in answer to the broadening meaning of heritage, and today new considerations lead us to address s...

Enduring Records By:Barbara A. Purdy Published on 2001 by Oxbow Books Limited The 27 papers in this volume have been developed from presentations made at an international wetlands archaeology conference held in Gainsville, Florida in December 1999. The theme of the conference was: The Significance of the Survival of Organic Materials from Archaeological Contexts. Individuals from seventeen countries spoke about shipwrecks, bog bodies, cenotes of sacrifice, art styles, perishable technologies, palynology, wetlands management, conservation methods, and updates on famous sites. Time periods ranged from the early Pleistocene to a few hundred years ago. As the international composition of the delegates (including a large number of North American scientists) indicates, wetland archaeology has emerged in recent years as a unique discipline facing unique difficulties which are encountered on both sides of the Atlantic.

Cultural Heritage in a Changing World

Cultural Heritage in a Changing World By:Karol Jan Borowiecki,Neil Forbes,Antonella Fresa Published on 2016-05-02 by Springer The central purpose of this collection of essays is to make a creative addition to the debates surrounding the cultural heritage domain. In the 21st century the world faces epochal changes which affect every part of society, including the arenas in which cultural heritage is made, held, collected, curated, exhibited, or simply exists. The book is about these changes; about the decentring of culture and cultural heritage away from institutional structures towards the individual; about the questions which the advent of digital technologies is demanding that we ask and answer in relation to how we understand, collect and make available Europe’s cultural heritage. Cultural heritage has enormous potential in terms of its contribution to improving the quality of life for people, understanding the past, assisting territorial cohesion, driving economic growth, opening u...
