Description
Summary:Excerpt: The idea of heritage as a cultural process implicated by the politics of knowledge, contestation of memory, and continuing re-imagination of local spaces across varying episodes of globalization bind together the articles and the conversation featured in this volume. The Philippine experience serves as the locus for dissecting these processes and interrogating the ideological fermentations surrounding the universalist notion of heritage. On such account, the assessments presented here exemplify how heritage has been mobilized as social and political instruments in the Global South with a view of enriching the broader efforts of re-understanding heritage beyond the idea of it as aesthetical objects and sites of celebration.
