Description
Conserving Culture examines
heritage protection in the United States and how it has been implemented in
specific cases. Contributors challenge the division of heritage into nature,
the built environment, and culture. They describe cultural conservation as an
integrated process for resource planning and recommend supplanting the current
prescriptive approach with one that is more responsive to grass-roots cultural
concerns.
