Book Synopsis Science and heritage by : Great Britain: Parliament: House of Lords: Science and Technology Committee
Download or read book Science and heritage written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Lords: Science and Technology Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2012-05-11 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report cites research that heritage tourism contributes GBP7.4 billion a year to the UK economy and supports 195, 000 full time equivalent jobs. The Committee argues that sustaining that contribution requires the UK to have the heritage science capacity to maintain the UK's movable and immovable heritage such as museum, library, archive and gallery collections and historic buildings. The recommendations made in the Committee's first report on heritage science (HLP 256, session 2005-06 (ISBN 9780104009550)) received a positive response: the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) and the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) have developed a joint Science and Heritage Programme, and the heritage science community have published a National Heritage Science Strategy and appointed a National Heritage Science Forum which have done much to build capacity and develop networks within the heritage science community. The Committee, however, heard concerns that senior heritage scientist posts are being lost and that the sustainability of UK heritage science capacity is at risk.It believes that the AHRC and National Heritage Science Forum should together measure capacity and address any issues arising. Whilst acknowledging the role of the heritage science community and improvements in this area since 2006, the Committee remains concerned and calls on DCMS to take action to ensure that heritage science is given the priority it deserves. Recommendations include: that DCMS should appoint a Chief Scientific Adviser without further delay and set departmental objectives for heritage science with DCMS arm's length bodies also setting out how they will help achieve these objectives

Book Synopsis International Journal for Digital Art History: Issue 3, 2018 by : Liska Surkemper
Download or read book International Journal for Digital Art History: Issue 3, 2018 written by Liska Surkemper and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2019-02-18 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art History is centrally concerned with a vast array of three-dimensional objects, such as sculptures, and spaces, such as architecture. Digital technologies allow the creation of virtual spaces, which in turn allow us to simulate and compare aspects of a visual culture's three-dimensional timespace that cannot be communicated as a single, still image. The third issue, thus, focusses on the third dimension in Art History, and the digital realm that continues to mediate and transform it.

Book Synopsis Governing Sustainability in the EU by : Ekaterina Domorenok
Download or read book Governing Sustainability in the EU written by Ekaterina Domorenok and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Governing Sustainability in the EU examines the recent novelties in the EU agenda for sustainable development, illustrating how the process of policy change has occurred at different levels, comprising general priorities, specific objectives and policy instruments. The book focuses on the evolution of the principle of policy integration and analyses its implementation by specific policy instruments across three policy areas: energy efficiency (the Covenant of Mayors), innovation (the Eco-Innovation Programme) and regional development (ERDF regional programmes regarding sustainable urban development). It specifically examines two domestic contexts (Italy and the UK) with the aim of understanding how the goals and means envisaged by the EU have been translated into concrete policy practices on the ground, and which factors have influenced the creation of new policy and governance practices necessary for the achievement of sustainable development objectives. This text will be of key interest to scholars, students and practitioners of sustainable development, European Union Politics, and Environmental Politics.

Download or read book Heritage Counts written by Koen Van Balen and published by Maklu. This book was released on 2016-02-10 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of heritage as a “capital of irreplaceable cultural, social and economic value” was already present in the European Charter of the Architectural Heritage, adopted by the Council of Europe in 1975 (par.3). Today, this discourse is getting increasing attention on the research agenda. Some argue that, although heritage is always valued highly, the current interest in the impact of heritage is caused by the democratisation of heritage and the increased importance of heritage in today’s society. Others argue that a universal scarcity of funds for heritage management and conservation is the reason to give it its proper attention. Therefore, the Raymond Lemaire International Centre for Conservation (University of Leuven) considered “Heritage Counts” a relevant and timely topic for its yearly international conference, the “thematic week”. This edition twins with the “Cultural Heritage Counts for Europe” project, funded by the EU Culture Programme. The opening day of the conference was co-organised by the lead partner of this project, EUROPA NOSTRA, and brought together European policymakers and international researchers involved in cultural heritage. This volume specifically reports on the lectures and fruitful debates on heritage impact during the 2015 thematic week. It was observed that evolutions in discourse and policy hold a significant prospect, which also entail an increasing demand for shared insights and formation. In response, this publication reflects on heritage impact by providing research, case studies and reflections that can serve as baseline records, guidance - and hopefully inspiration. The findings are subdivided in three main chapters: “Framing the paradigm”, “Impact assessments: research, methods and practice” and “Linking management, conservation and sustainable development”.

Book Synopsis Cultural Heritage Management in Africa by : George Okello Abungu
Download or read book Cultural Heritage Management in Africa written by George Okello Abungu and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-15 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cultural Heritage Management in Africa explores the diversity of Africa’s cultural heritage by analysing how and why this heritage has been managed, and by considering the factors that continue to influence management strategies and systems throughout the African continent. Including contributions from prominent scholars and heritage professionals working across Africa, the volume presents critical, contemporary perspectives on the state of heritage in the area. Chapters analyse the practices that emanated from different colonial experiences and consider what impact these had – and continue to have – on the management of African heritage. It also critically examines the ideological influence of independence movements on the African continent’s management and remembering of heritage, and considers whether there are any differences in heritage management between countries that experienced armed conflicts and those that did not. The volume will be the first to critically assess the state of heritage management now, at a time when vital conversations about the balance between heritage and development is ongoing and the actions of new players have begun to impact the management and practice of heritage in the region. Cultural Heritage Management in Africa will be essential reading for those engaged in the study of museums and heritage, development, archaeology, anthropology, history and African studies. It will also be of interest to heritage and museum professionals who wish to learn more about the decolonisation of heritage.
