Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The decision to create a memorial on the site of the Union Carbide India Limited factory represents an opportunity to mark one of the worst industrial accidents on record. The derelict site of the former factory has acquired iconic status as a landmark in a thriving city and has come to represent many things; shame, pain, embarrassment, anger, sorrow and ongoing demands for justice to name but a few. Divisions and multiple narratives remain amongst the many and often divided stakeholders. The process of heritage management offers an opportunity for participatory and inclusive practice in the creation of a memorial / museum. This paper explores the case of Bhopal within the context of the need for a broad interdisciplinary approach that embraces industrial heritage as a relevant force for contemporary society and a contributor to the goals of active memorialization. The authors were both participants in the modern Asian Architectural Network Workshop and Symposium in Bhopal in January 2011 and are part of an international consortium of researchers supporting the architects Space Matters who in 2005 won the governmentally initiated architectural competition for developing the site.
