Meeting Description:

The global rise of heritage studies and the heritage industry in recent
decades has been a story of crossing frontiers and transcending
boundaries. The 2018 ACHS (Association of Critical Heritage Studies) World
Congress of Cultural Heritage will be held from 1 to 6 Sep, 2018 in Zhejiang
University, Hangzhou, China, for understanding how heritage is valued,
preserved, politicized, mobilized, financed, planned and destroyed. Thinking
through borders raises questions about theories and methodologies of heritage,
discourse & law on heritage, heritage & semiotics, and where its boundaries
lie with tourism, urban development, post-disaster recovery, collective
identities, climate change, memory or violent conflict. It has been conceived
to connect international participants with local issues, and in so doing open
up debates about the rural-urban, east-west, tangible-intangible and other
familiar divides.
