Description: Heritage and Identity : Engagement and Demission in the Contemporary World, Paperback by Anico, Marta (EDT); Peralta, Elsa (EDT), ISBN 0415453364, ISBN-13 9780415453363, Brand New, Free shipping in the US There is currently a virtual "heritage epidemic" in groups seeking recognition of their identities. Anico and Peralta (lecturers in anthropology, Instituto Superior de Ciencias Sociais e Políticas, U. Técnica de Lisbon, Portugal) introduce 13 analyses that examine ways in which heritage contributes to the construction and representation of identities in contemporary societies. International scholars address key issues in the relationship between heritage and identity (one project studies the role of images in re- imagining national identity); heritage and cultural policies in globalization and ideological contexts; and controversies over turning a former Nazi building into a shopping center, and displaying a ship utilized in the US slave trade.
