{"product_id":"mobilizing-heritage","title":"Mobilizing Heritage","description":"Mapping out emerging areas for global cultural heritage, this book provides an anthropological perspective on the growing field of heritage studies. Kathryn Lafrenz Samuels adopts a dual focus--looking back on the anthropological foundations for cultural heritage research while looking forward to areas of practice that reach beyond national borders: economic development, climate action, democratic practice, heritage rights, and global justice. Working around the traditional authority of the nation-state and intergovernmental treaty-based organizations such as UNESCO, these issues characterize heritage activity in transnational networks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLafrenz Samuels argues that transnational heritage involves an important shift from a paradigm of preservation to a paradigm of development. Responding to this expanding developmental sensibility, she positions cultural heritage as a persuasive tool for transformative action, capable of mobilizing and shaping social change. She shows how anthropological approaches help support the persuasive power of heritage in the transnational sphere.","brand":"University Press of Florida","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55804793061720,"sku":"9780813056647","price":76.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780813056647_3e88c50f-db88-4f6c-874a-46f889fb4d53.jpg?v=1777175142","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/mobilizing-heritage","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
