Dear all --

P46: Critical heritage studies and the circuits of power: inclusion and
exclusion in the making of heritage
http://www.nomadit.co.uk/sief/sief2013/panels.php5?PanelID=2245
Our panel follows the quest for critical heritage studies to open up the
traditional approach to heritage by including the marginalised strains
and participants or bystanders in cultural heritage processes to offer a
fuller understanding of the phenomenon. Therefore this panel seeks to
contribute to the discussions about processes of power in the making of
heritage. In line with the general conference theme, we would like to
particularly scrutinise the role of circulation of power in heritage.
From daily realities to the marketable brand that then transforms the
daily lives through consumption, heritage is the powerful undercurrent
of the changing forms of many mundane phenomena in modern lives. It can
move people, regions and landscapes from positions of marginality to
centrality. Yet, it continues generating new forms of marginality,
reinforcing and contributing to class relations. Heritage also lends
power to the objects of heritage, which may reconfigure existing
heritage institutions.
We welcome empirically grounded contributions addressing the circulation
of power, focusing on all participants in heritage processes. From
bystanders to experts, from artefacts and landscapes to performers and
re-enactors, this panel seeks to scrutinise how various actors gain and
lose access to defining, benefiting from and/or channeling heritage.
What strategic interests do actors pursue in heritage management? How
are some groups and interests consolidated, and others marginalised in
the process? What role do the physical properties of heritage objects
like landscapes, buildings and artifacts play in defining heritage? How
is heritage used in marketing, consumption and political processes to
shape and reshape groups' self-visions?
