Description of the group
Through such processes of ‘heritagization’, intangible forms of the everyday are becoming subject to politics, juridical implications in an (inter-) national context, interference or subjection to global (UN) conventions, debates and controversies. The research group aims at:
- Collaboration and exchange between researchers (improve quality of research on heritage dynamics)
- Exchange between researchers, “heritage professionals” and policy makers (impact of research results on heritage policy)
- Dissemination of the research results through publications, conferences, and/or public debates.
- Promotion of collaborative research projects through interaction between scholars at these meetings
Envisaged results
Lectures/talks, workshops, conferences, articles, Media exposure
