Archaeological Heritage Management in Indonesia: Prospects and Challenges
Keywords:
Cultural Resource Management, Heritage Management, Indonesian HeritageSynopsis
This book examines the practice of archaeology and cultural heritage management in Indonesia through a series of current case studies. While many groundbreaking archaeological discoveries have been made in this region in recent years, this book provides insights into how those discoveries, sites and artefacts are valued and managed by local communities, government officials and other stakeholders. Authors are both leading Indonesian archaeologists and non-Indonesian foreign researchers. The varied case studies provide insight into heritage practice, never published in English, and reveal the complexity of heritage and its relationship to research, community and national politics, indigeneity and colonialism. Suited for those interested in heritage management, community-based research and the practice of archaeology, from both academic and policy viewpoints, its focus on community engagement and tangible/intangible heritage integration offers innovative insights that will resonate with academics and practitioners alike. It is a benchmark reference for Southeast Asian archaeology and heritage studies.
