Inhaltsangabe

Contrary to popular perceptions, cultural heritage is not given, but constantly in the making, subject to dynamic processes of (re)inventing culture within particular social formations and via particular forms of mediation. Through the heuristic concepts of the "politics of authentication" and "aesthetics of persuasion," this volume explores the centrality of this tension to heritage formation worldwide.
