Co-edited by our Nélia Dias with Rodney Harrison and Kristian Kristiansen, the book Critical Heritage Studies and the Future of Europe is published by UCL Press and free to download in open access PDF format.
Throughout its 386 pages, ‘contributors draw on a range of disciplinary perspectives to consider, variously, the role of heritage and museums in the migration and climate ‘emergencies’; approaches to urban heritage conservation and practices of curating cities; digital and digitised heritage; the use of heritage as a therapeutic resource; and critical approaches to heritage and its management’, summarizes the publisher.
