{"product_id":"heritopia","title":"Heritopia","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eHeritopia\u003c\/i\u003e investigates the meanings of the past in the present, focusing on Abu Simbel in Egypt and other World Heritage sites. It explores and resolves a number of paradoxes: the past is impossible to preserve for eternity; all preservation implies change; preservation of one site normally means destruction of others; threats are important in the creation of heritage, but at the same time heritage may become a threat and threats can become heritage themselves; heritage stands in contrast to modernity and is at the same time part of it; both the increase and the decrease of modernity create heritage; and finally, heritage may be global and local at the same time. \u003ci\u003eHeritopia\u003c\/i\u003e will appeal to students and professionals in heritage studies and related subjects such as archaeology, history, ethnology and museology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn electronic edition of this book is freely available under a Creative Commons (CC BY-NC-ND) licence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lund University Press,Sweden","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54260843282776,"sku":"9789198469936","price":31.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9789198469936_6f7c0026-c13f-47e1-a1d9-614f8bd7b68d.jpg?v=1765294245","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/heritopia","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
