Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transformative role of culture, its ability to create value for the benefit of current and future generations, is widely recognized by academics of many disciplines, professionals and policymakers. Notwithstanding, how culture can be a driving force for economic growth, a source of welfare and tools for social inclusion, still deserves to be investigated at various levels, starting with local communities. This book attempts to explain the relevance of accounting knowledge for managing cultural heritage by sustainable, resilient, accountable organizations, regardless of their public or private institutional form. This book aims at understanding the role of cultural heritage in the economy, in society and in facing the new challenges deriving from the enactment of the UN Sustainable Development agenda, as well as the pandemic emergency from COVID-19. It adopts a managerial accounting studies approach to provide answers that can be applied in any organizational context. The results achieved from the field research are critically discussed under the theoretical frameworks referring to the theory of value and its creation. From the findings and their discussion, a conceptual model based on empiricism is proposed for managing cultural heritage of communities under sustainable perspective, even in times of crisis. It will be essential reading for academics and students of cultural heritage management, sustainability and crisis management in organisations.
Book Synopsis Management and Valuation of Heritage Assets by : Loris Landriani
Download or read book Management and Valuation of Heritage Assets written by Loris Landriani and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-10-29 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The valuation of Heritage Assets (HA), which are a vital resource for the non-profit public or private organizations operating in the heritage sector is on the one hand sometimes difficult to do, and on the other, can be excessively costly with respect to the correlated disclosure benefits. The growing application of the (full or modified) accrual basis of accounting in the public and non-profit sectors has extended and reanimated this issue. This book applies the comparative method, in order to provide new information on the analyzed subject. Specifically, after having investigated the different theoretical and technical proposals, it compares the reporting behavior of significant cases of Italian and American public and private organizations, coming from different cultural and management approaches. Proposing a link between the managerial and reporting issues of the organizations involved in the management and maintenance of heritage assets, this book is crucial in the task to optimize the performance of organizations in this sector.

Book Synopsis Managing Cultural Heritage by : Luca Zan
Download or read book Managing Cultural Heritage written by Luca Zan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1990s, heritage studies has emerged as a distinct academic field, and practices and rhetoric drawn from mainstream corporate management and strategic planning have become widespread. Based on extensive research, this book is an in-depth investigation of management practices rather than policies, based on a variety of case studies from around the world. The authors take the issue of management in heritage seriously, but also take into account the role of other disciplines within heritage organizations. In particular, they focus on sustainability in terms of financial resources, human resources, knowledge management, and the relationship with the audience and communities of scholars. The book opens with a methodological introduction that discusses what it means to do research on management, and why international comparative research is essential. The body of the text engages issues of heritage and management through five distinct analytical lenses: management and the process of change, institutional settings and business models, change and planning, the Heritage Chain, and the space between policy and practice. Each of these five sections includes a chapter introducing the analytical framework and possible implications, followed by case histories from China, Italy, Malta, Turkey, and Peru. The book ends with a chapter of concluding reflections.
Book Synopsis Sustainability Accounting, Management Control and Reporting by : Pierre Baret
Download or read book Sustainability Accounting, Management Control and Reporting written by Pierre Baret and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-08-08 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sustainability Accounting, Management Control and Reporting: A European Perspective traces a picture of innovative performance measurement tools and approaches to drive organizations to implement their shared value and sustainability strategy, considering different perspectives around accounting, managerial control and reporting. In recent years, organizations managing their responsible approach with relevance and pressure from stakeholders and regulations has proven to be a major challenge. During the first two decades of the 21st century, many companies have reached a real maturity in this area and have deployed coherent responsible approaches that are integrated into their overall strategy. It is now a matter of steering these responsible approaches from an accounting and managerial standpoint, but also of reporting on them. It requires the simultaneous use of comprehensive accounting, controlling and reporting tools. This book provides an innovative perspective on sustainable management control, comprehensive accounting and integrated reporting, presenting the most recent proposals and the main critical issues. Aimed at researchers, academics, managers, business leaders and advanced students, the book will be especially valuable to those in the fields of corporate social responsibility, strategic management, and accounting.

Book Synopsis Communities and Cultural Heritage by : Valerie Higgins
Download or read book Communities and Cultural Heritage written by Valerie Higgins and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-11-29 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communities and Cultural Heritage explores the relationship between communities, their cultural heritage and the global forces that control most of the world’s wealth and resources in today’s world. Bringing together scholars and heritage practitioners from nine countries, this book contributes to the ongoing dialogue on community heritage by analysing impediments to full community participation. The underminin of local communities comes at a high price. As the chapters in this book demonstrate, the knowledge embedded within traditional and Indigenous heritage creates communities that are more resilient to environmental and social stressors and more responsive to contemporary challenges such as climate change, environmental degradation, post-disaster recovery and relocation. Cultural heritage practices often fail to capitalise upon local knowledge and traditional skills and undervalue the potential contribution of local communities in finding creative and resourceful solutions to the issues they are confronting. Arguing that the creation of successful community heritage project requires ongoing reflection on the aims, methods, financing and acceptable outcomes of projects, the volume also demonstrates that the decolonization of Western-focussed heritage practices is an ongoing process, by which subaltern groups are brought forward and given a space in the heritage narrative. Reflecting on trends that impact communities and heritage sites across different geographical regions, Communities and Cultural Heritage will be of interest to academics, students and practitioners of cultural heritage,archaeology and anthropology around the world.
Book Synopsis Qualitative Research in Intangibles, Intellectual Capital and Integrated Reporting Practices. by : Maria Serena Chiucchi
Download or read book Qualitative Research in Intangibles, Intellectual Capital and Integrated Reporting Practices. written by Maria Serena Chiucchi and published by Roma TrE-Press. This book was released on 2019-03-01 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questo libro si propone di esplorare le opportunità, le criticità e le prospettive offerte dai metodi di ricerca qualitativi con specifico riferimento al tema degli intangibles, capitale intellettuale e reporting integrato. Nonostante l'interesse crescente mostrato dalla teoria, i benefici attribuiti alla misurazione, alla gestione e al reporting degli intangibili e del capitale intellettuale non sono pienamente riconosciuti nella pratica. Da qui nasce l’esigenza di un approccio di ricerca rigoroso e “performativo”. Adottare un approccio performativo implica studiare la misurazione, la gestione e il reporting "in azione", all'interno e tra le organizzazioni, per capire in che modo le risorse di conoscenza, le persone, i processi e le relazioni vengono mobilitate e attivate per creare valore. Per offrire una risposta a questi interrogativi, questo libro presenta i risultati di ricerca presentati dagli studiosi in occasione del SIDREA International Workshop (SIW 2017) sul tema "Ricerca qualitativa in beni immateriali, capitale intellettuale e pratiche integrate di reporting. Opportunità, criticità e prospettive future ", organizzato dal Dipartimento di Studi Aziendali, Università Roma TRE e dal Dipartimento di Gestione, Università Politecnica delle Marche.

Book Synopsis Cultural Heritage as a Trigger for Civic Wealth Creation and Sustainable Urban Development by : Mara Del Baldo
Download or read book Cultural Heritage as a Trigger for Civic Wealth Creation and Sustainable Urban Development written by Mara Del Baldo and published by Roma TrE-Press. This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La rigenerazione urbana si basa su una visione integrata volta a risolvere i problemi urbani e a promuovere lo sviluppo delle comunità interessate. Reiventare lo spazio, valorizzare la cultura per dare nuova vita ai centri storici, è un’esigenza civica crescente e una sfida per i politici e i manager delle città. Questo obiettivo potrebbe essere raggiunto valorizzando il Patrimonio Culturale e i saperi locali per generare nuove opportunità e benessere per i cittadini. Al momento, troppo spesso il Patrimonio Culturale viene apprezzato principalmente a fini turistici. Un fatto che causa anche molteplici problemi: sovraffollamento, gentrificazione, conflitti tra interessi turistici e civici, traffico urbano, generazione di posti di lavoro a basso reddito, per citare solo i più evidenti. Ne deriva che una profonda comprensione della partecipazione civica e democratica nell'accesso, nella conservazione e nello sfruttamento del nostro Patrimonio Culturale è un terreno fertile per il dibattito tra studiosi di varie discipline. I contributi di questo libro cercano di alimentare tale dibattito dal punto di vista degli studiosi di management. DOI: 10.13134/979-12-5977-201-5

Book Synopsis Unquiet Pasts by : Stephanie Koerner
Download or read book Unquiet Pasts written by Stephanie Koerner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important book addresses critical themes in the development of archaeology as a reflexive, self-critical discipline in the modern world. It explores the ethical, political and cultural tensions and responsibilities which need to be addressed by archaeologists when working within networks of global ecologies and communities, examining how authoritarian traditions can exacerbate the divide between expert and public knowledge. Moreover, it analyses how localized acts of archaeology relate to changing conceptions of risk, heritage, culture, identity, and conflict. Bringing insights from Alain Schnapp, Michael Shanks, Isabelle Stengers, Bruno Latour, Ulrich Beck, John Urry and others to cross-disciplinary discussions of these themes, Unquiet Pasts shows how archaeological discourse can contribute towards engaging and understanding current dilemmas. It also shows how archaeology, as a localized and responsibly exercised practice, can play a part in building our commonly shared and experienced world.
