Ownership and Benefits of Heritage

Cursusbeschrijving

An increasingly relevant answer can be given to the well-known question, ‘who owns the past?’, and that is that we, as society, all do. Although large numbers of experts and lobbyists press for sustainability in heritage, it is the general public who arguably hold the biggest stake to both ‘own’ the past and benefit from it. This module explores these ideas and the deep relationship between heritage and the public.
