Convergent ideas on common interest themes have led us to start some joint studies. These researches focus on archaeological management strategies in Ibero-American cities declared World Heritage by UNESCO and also the relationships between cultural heritage and communities in the most different urban contexts. This article is dedicated to one of them. It is the result of a pilot experiment carried out in the final stages of the R & D project "The Archaeological Dimension in World Heritage Cities: Advances in Heritage Management in Alcalá de Henares, Puebla and La Habana". We intended to gather data on the relationship between the communities that inhabit the peripheral quarter of Catholic Kings and the cultural assets in this context, specifically the museum ruins of the Roman city of Complutum, for behavioral guidelines for structuring a future project. The objective of this article is to present the results of the field surveys, carried out in November 2015 and June 2016, when we tried two different methodologies, namely non - systematic observation and drift. The results obtained suggest that the museum's archaeological site is part of the everyday life of neighbors, members of a changing neighborhood, currently marked by its multicultural features and resonance with other memory milestones in the neighborhood.

The Relationship

The widely recognized definition of ‘Cultural Landscape’ in current practice is borrowed from UNESCO as Combined works of Nature and of Man.1 They are complex entities consisting of multiple layering of built-unbuilt components including intangible cultural aspects. These components are interrelated and interdependent. The landscape evolves together through combined natural and cultural processes. In current discourse and practice of heritage management, value-based assessment is a widely accepted approach. Evaluation of cultural landscapes for its Significance and Value is a complex process that requires an understanding of interwoven layers of components and attributes.2 Systematic understanding of such relationships between components and attributes is still in its infancy. Amongst various such identified intangible agencies, this study chooses to explore music. A study of secondary sources was undertaken. Cultural landscapes nominated as World Heritage Sites and identified Indian sites were systematically examined to understand various components and attributes. Using the indicators from this study and the theoretical framework of sociomusicology, a research design was prepared. Recognizing the historical association of music with the sites on the Kaveri river basin in peninsular India, a reconnaissance study was undertaken for onsite validation. Musical associations were spatially mapped for analysis and the findings are presented. Systematic understanding of the relationships between components of a cultural landscape and intangible cultural traditions is still in its infancy. The undertaken study is an exploratory work that focuses on understanding the relationship between components of a cultural landscape and ‘intangible attributes’, especially music. A study of secondary sources was undertaken in two parts. In the first part, concept of cultural landscape has been explored. Cultural landscapes nominated as World Heritage Sites were systematically examined to understand various components and attributes. The knowledge helped in formation of indicators for evaluation of cultural landscapes. In the second part of the study, selected case studies of Indian cultural landscapes were studies with the developed indicators. Musical traditions existing in these sites were theoretically reduced to basic components and mapped for analysis.

Protection Of Cultural Heritage

This paper clarifies and interprets the current problems in Vietnamese heritage management and suggests remedies through the case study at the Vuon Chuoi archaeological site. Through the analysis of the Vietnamese law on cultural heritage as well as examining behaviours of the stakeholders involved in heritage management, three issues that make Vietnamese archaeological heritage management more difficult are defined: (1) the law on cultural heritage is not forceful enough to protect the Vuon Chuoi site under the threat of construction projects; (2) overlapping jurisdictions make the model of cultural heritage in Hanoi inefficient. The authorities responsible for heritage management at all levels have failed to protect the Vuon Chuoi site properly in accordance with the Vietnamese law on cultural heritage and have shown their irresponsibility in the heritage management; and (3) there is a lack of cooperation between stakeholders to balance the need for economic development and the protection of cultural heritage in Vuon Chuoi area. Bài viết này nhằm mục đích xác định và giải thích một phần các thách thức gặp phải trong quản lý di sản và đề xuất các biện pháp khắc phục thông qua trường hợp nghiên cứu di chỉ khảo cổ Vườn Chuối. Qua phân tích Luật di sản văn hóa, mô hình quản lý di sản của Việt Nam và hành vi của các bên liên quan trong quản lý di sản, có ba thách thức khiến việc quản lý di sản khảo cổ Việt Nam trở nên khó khăn hơn được xác định là: (1) luật di sản văn hóa không đủ mạnh để bảo vệ di chỉ khảo cổ học Vườn Chuối trước sự đe dọa của các dự án xây dựng; (2) sự phân quyền chồng chéo trong quản lý làm cho mô hình di sản văn hóa ở Hà Nội không hiệu quả. Sự thiếu trách nhiệm của các cấp quản lý đã khiến Vườn Chuối nằm ngoài phạm vi bảo vệ của Luật Di sản Văn hóa; và (3) thiếu sự hợp tác giữa các bên liên quan trong việc cân bằng nhu cầu phát triển kinh tế và bảo vệ di sản văn hóa đã đẩy Vườn Chuối đến nguy cơ bị xóa sổ.

The Relationship

Heritage cities often build on their cultural assets to develop as destinations. Yet, the assets communicated to visitors usually present only part of the picture. Heritage cities often tend to possess a significant cultural value that is hidden from the prying eyes. This value is not only exhibited as tangible assets, but the accumulation of knowledge and experience in the culture-laden milieu is also central to the notion of heritage (Falser, 2015). Such intangible elements have found their way into international discussions in recent years (Vecco, 2010). Heritage cities, as living spaces, also embrace a cultural heritage inseparable from local communities, and in a broader perspective, from the whole of humanity. This perspective is central to the creation of World Heritage Sites (WHSs) seeking to protect the world’s heritage with Outstanding Universal Value under the umbrella of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) (1972). In this process, however, the heritage assets inscribed as WHSs are nominated by national governments which, upon inscription, become the primary entity responsible for safeguarding their integrity. The primary motivation for this research is the centralized governance structure in developing countries and how this affects the potential to achieve sustainability through tourism development. Turkey is an example of such a centralized system in regard to tourism and heritage management (Yüksel et al., 2005) which includes the WHSs. In Turkey, WHSs are not only effective tools to aid foreign policy (Atakuman, 2010) but are also integral to culture-driven tourism strategy (Ozturk & van Niekerk, 2014). Despite inconclusive evidence in the literature on the relationship between proliferation of tourism and WHS status (Jimura, 2011; Poria et al., 2013), Turkey’s proactive relationship with UNESCO may be interpreted as reaffirming the perceived linkage between WHS status and visitation.

AbstractPublic Archaeology in the Mediterranean Context (#pubarchMED) is a project that focuses on the management of archaeological heritage in the Mediterranean context from the perspective of public archaeology. Ranging from fully public models where preventive archaeology itself is a challenge to mixed models where the outsourcing of this work has been accomplished to a full extent, the variety of solutions is wide and with a common trend: struggle with mitigation and little space for creativity. This article will delve into the range of models that exist in the Mediterranean, exploring the way they approach, first of all, preventive/rescue archaeology, and then, the relationship between archaeology and society in the process. Building on the challenges of an underfunded scheme for an extremely archaeologically rich territory, different solutions have been set in practice—in some cases, under the auspices of competent administrations in the form of public policy—in the endeavor to include public archaeology in the practice, mostly encouraged by professionals as a personal or corporate initiative, and sometimes even consciously avoided. The discussion will offer some ideas for creative mitigation in the different scenarios, built on the comparative study and the broad possibilities to engage stakeholders positively in the process.

Practical Implications

Building on previous research that claims tourists’ perceived authenticity is an antecedent to place attachment, this study explored the relationship between the two theoretical constructs. Specifically, the mechanism between perceived authenticity, place attachment, and loyalty was empirically tested. The data were collected at Kaiping Diaolou and Villages, and the Old Town of Lijiang, two UNESCO heritage sites in southern China. Contrary to previous studies, the findings indicate that (1) perceived authenticity can be an antecedent to place attachment, (2) across both sites, tourists’ perceived authenticity of architecture or intangible heritage exhibited various effects on different components of place attachment, (3) the constituents of place attachment significantly influence loyalty, and (4) place attachment mediates between perceived authenticity and loyalty. This study provided a refined understanding of the dynamics between perceived authenticity and place attachment and offered practical implications for heritage management and marketing.

The City

Since the 1980s, Barcelona's local institutions have been pioneers in creating a close relationship between culture, urban regeneration, and the social and economic development of the city, and subsequently in implementing a new paradigm in cultural policy for entrepreneurial, cultural, and creative cities. As a consequence, the city has also become a model for place branding and cultural tourism. In this context, Born, an archaeological site of the early eighteenth century which offers detailed testimony to both the cultural and economic lifestyle of the city at that time and the defeat of the Catalans during the War of the Spanish Succession, has been preserved and opened to the public in line with the city's varying cultural policies and attitudes to national identity over the last two decades. This article discusses Born from 2000 to 2017 and the political and cultural management context in relation to the Barcelona model that has defined its current form as a cultural centre. In this context, this article also discusses the role of archaeology in Barcelona's cultural governance, as a case study through which to consider the role of urban archaeological heritage management today.
