Sommario/riassunto

Mit Beiträgen von Francesco Bandarin, Minja Yang und Mechthild Rössler Die Welt im 21. Jahrhundert ist durch globale Phänomene wie den Klimawandel, ökonomische Verwerfungen, Migrationsprozesse oder die Auswirkungen der digitalen Technologien gekennzeichnet. Nachhaltige Entwicklung kann unter diesen Voraussetzungen als das wichtigste Leitbild dieses Jahrhunderts gewertet werden. Nachhaltigkeit und nachhaltige Entwicklung sind Schlüsselkonzepte, die auch die Diskurse zum Schutz und zur Nutzung des Kultur- und Naturerbes der Menschheit prägen.Die Beiträge dieses Buches zeichnen sich durch innovative Sichtweisen auf einen nachhaltigen Schutz und eine nachhaltige Nutzung von Erbe aus und zeigen damit ein neues Spektrum des Umgangs mit dem Kultur- und Naturerbe auf. Die Veröffentlichung ist die vierte in der Reihe Heritage Studies, die zur Auseinandersetzung mit dem Erbediskurs in der Gesellschaft einlädt.

With contributions Francesco Bandarin, Minja Yang and Mechthild Rössler This publication is the fourth in the Heritage Studies series and aims to reflect upon the many dimensions of sustainability and sustainable development within the Heritage Studies discourse. Sustainability as a concept and sustainable development as a goal are presented in official policies within UNESCO's understanding of heritage, in its paradigmatic reflections and in the diversity of theories and methods, including many different and sometimes conflicting understandings of sustainability within this discourse. Thus, the contributors to this publication discuss sustainability as it directly concerns the potential of different approaches to World Heritage and Intangible Heritage. The inclusion of the four dimensions of sustainability - environmental, economic, social and cultural - into the Heritage Studies discourse opens a new perspective on the discourse itself.
