The inaugural event for the newly established University of Massachusetts (UMass) Amherst Center for Heritage & Society, entitled “Heritage in Conflict and Consensus: New Approaches to the Social, Political, and Religious Impact of Public Heritage in the 21st Century,” was held in November 2009 at three locations in the northeastern United States. Workshop attendees participated in several organized sessions, day trips, informal discussions, and five plenary sessions with accompanying working sessions focused on four themes in international heritage practice: community; faith; diaspora; and burial, ancestors, and human Remains. The event was co-organized by two members of the UMass Amherst Center for Heritage & Society, Director Elizabeth Chilton and Coordinator of Projects and Policy Initiatives Neil Silberman, whose main goal was to establish a permanent working group of international representatives engaging with issues of heritage in conflict charged with setting research and policy agendas for the field.

Conditions for faith education to remain meaningful in the 21st century cultural context Although significant numbers of their members are leaving the mainstream churches, this does not mean that these people have relinquished their Christian faith as such. There are signs that people leave mainstream denominations because of new approaches to life and personal experience in the cultural context of the 21st century. The authors try to discover explanations for this phenomenon that also seems to affect the faith education of the younger generation. It is concluded that the faith education of young people can only remain meaningful if people adopted what Paul Ricoeur called a “second naivity”, and if educators complied with certain conditions. By following certain guidelines, educators will help resist a threatening sense of loss of transcendance, relevance and reference among their learners.
