Protecting Heritage in the Caribbean

Heritage management does not happen in an idealized vacuum of knowledge production, financial support, and social appreciation. Heritage management is inherently laden with political, economic, and cultural ramifications. Protecting Heritage in the Caribbean brings to the fore the complexitiesofheritagemanagementwithin a region of diverse island nations, territories, governments and histories. In a refreshingly honest, frank, and at times emotionally charged fashion, the contributors of this volume offer their perspectives regarding the state of heritage management andprotection/conservation throughout the Caribbean. While geographically focused on the Caribbean, readers will no doubt find the themesanddiscussionpresentedinthisbook applicable and timely to other world regions and cultural heritages.
