Cultural Heritage and the Future
- 2021
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- Cultural Heritage and the Future brings together an international group of scholars and experts to consider the relationship between cultural heritage and the future.Drawing on case studies from around the world, the contributing authors insist that cultural heritage and the future are intimately linked and that the development of futures thinking should be a priority for academics, students and those working in the wider professional heritage sector. Until recently, the future has never attracted substantial research and debate within heritage studies and heritage management, and this book addresses this gap by offering a balance of theoretical and empirical content that will stimulate multidisciplinary debate in the burgeoning field of critical heritage studies.Cultural Heritage and the Future questions the role of heritage in future making and will be of great relevance to academics and students working in the fields of museum and heritage studies, archaeology, anthropology, architecture, conservation studies, sociology, history and geography. Those working in the heritage professions will also find much to interest them within the pages of this book.

Heritage Futures : Comparative Approaches to Natural and Cultural Heritage Practices
- 2020
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- Preservation of natural and cultural heritage is often said to be something that is done for the future, or on behalf of future generations, but the precise relationship of such practices to the future is rarely reflected upon. Heritage Futures draws on research undertaken over four years by an interdisciplinary, international team of 16 researchers and more than 25 partner organisations to explore the role of heritage and heritage-like practices in building future worlds.Engaging broad themes such as diversity, transformation, profusion and uncertainty, Heritage Futures aims to understand how a range of conservation and preservation practices across a number of countries assemble and resource different kinds of futures, and the possibilities that emerge from such collaborative research for alternative approaches to heritage in the Anthropocene. Case studies include the cryopreservation of endangered DNA in frozen zoos, nuclear waste management, seed biobanking, landscape rewilding, social history collecting, space messaging, endangered language documentation, built and natural heritage management, domestic keeping and discarding practices, and world heritage site management.

- The future has seldom been an object of archaeological study even though there are some very profound and deep-reaching links between past, present, and future. At the same time, archaeologists work to preserve places, environments, and associated values and knowledge for future generations. But although it is not far-fetched to claim that the future will differ from what we are used to in the present, in managing archaeological heritage, most assumptions about the future do not build on an understanding of how the future will be different from today. We argue in this paper that archaeologists should not only promote historical consciousness but also future consciousness.

Archaeology and the future : Managing nuclear waste as a living heritage
- 2015
-
Ingår i: Radioactive Waste Management and Constructing Memory for Future Generations. - : OECD Publishing. ; , s. 97-101

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Archaeology is the study of the past and its remains in the present. It is relevant to the long-term preservation of records, knowledge and memory, e.g. regarding final repositories of nuclear waste, in two ways. Firstly, future archaeology may promise the recovery of lost information, knowledge and meaning of remains of the past. Secondly, present-day archaeology can offer lessons about how future societies will make sense of remains of the past.Archaeology is always situated in a larger social and cultural context and the information, knowledge and meaning it generates is necessarily of its own present. Archaeological knowledge reflects contemporary perceptions of past and future; these perceptions change over time. Indeed, we cannot assume that in the future there will be any archaeology at all. We think, therefore, that future societies will want, and need, to make their own decisions about sites associated with nuclear waste, based on their own perceptions of past and future. To facilitate this process in the long term we need to engage each present, keeping safe options open.In this text we elaborate on these issues from our perspective as archaeologists.

- The future is an important new topic for archaeology. Archaeologists do not only study past futures but are also concerned with future pasts and in particular with the impact of their work on future societies. Drawing on the notion of “heritage futures”, archaeological heritage is claimed to contribute to sustainable development and address challenges posed by climate change, human conflicts, and others.

Communicating with future generations : what are the benefits of preserving for future generations? Nuclear power and beyond

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In 1977, the first fast breeder nuclear reactor in the world to provide electricity to a national grid was shut down for the last time. The Dounreay Dome on the North coast of Scotland, near Thurso, Caithness, was completed in 1958 and its silhouette later became an emblem of the Atomic Age. As the decommission of the entire site proceeds, incorporating even other defunct nuclear reactors and associated facilities, the question arose whether the Dome can and should be preserved as cultural heritage for the benefit of future generations. Using the example of the legacy of the nuclear power station at Dounreay, this paper discusses the question what it means to preserve something for the benefit of future generations.

- Studies of the future are pertinent in order to make the best decisions in present society. They are, however, full of difficulties, as the future is an empirical field which does not exist (Slaughter, 1996; Bell, 1997; Mogensen, 2006). Both pertinence and difficulties apply also to studying the future in relation to human culture. The main challenge lies in the circumstance that cultural heritage of the future cannot in itself be empirically investigated and described, since it is in part dependent on decisions that have not yet been made. Studying heritage futures is thus about considering what we know about cultural heritage in the context of prognoses and visions of what will come. Yet how do we do that? The American anthropologist Samuel Gerald Collins contributed to an interesting discussion on how anthropology and anthropologists have previously embraced the future and how they might now be embracing it. He emphasized that an important approach is to vouchsafe the possibility that future ways in which people will think and act may be very different from today, and, in doing so, to open up a space (or a spacetime) for critical reflection on the present (Collins, 2008, p. 8). This approach is a useful programmatic declaration for engaging with the future in disciplines such as anthropology, archaeology, history and heritage studies.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The heritage sector would benefit from more detailed knowledge on how specific perceptions of the future inform heritage practices and how contemporary heritage management relates to those future trends that we can actually make out today. Given that heritage experts should be among those best equipped to place social practices and their underlying logics into a larger historical perspective acknowledging change over time, this is somewhat surprising. One possible concrete strategy is to add temporality to decisions about heritage conservation. This can be achieved either by adding explicit future recipients to specific conservation projects or by setting “expiry dates”. Another possible strategy aims at directly empowering future generations. Maybe the key for future benefits of heritage lies as much in educating audiences how to think and use heritage in a way that benefits people and society rather than merely in making sure that a particular kind of heritage is physically preserved.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The ways in which people think and act are bound to particular cultural contexts and are therefore specific in time and place. Given that the cultural heritage sector should appreciate this, it is somewhat ironic that the need to preserve the heritage for the future is widely taken for granted, both in the heritage sector itself and society at large. Detailed discussions of the future in the literature about heritage are few and those that take place are often about ensuring continuity of the present rather than preparing for future change. Even at the highest international level, a potentially different significance of heritage in the future, compared with the present, is seldom considered. The chapter also presents an overview on the key concepts discussed in this book.

Lessons from archaeology and heritage studies for the long-term preservation of records, knowledge and memory concerning deep geological disposal sites for nuclear waste
- 2021
-
Ingår i: Interdisciplinary Research Symposium on the Safety of Nuclear Disposal Practices safeND. - : Copernicus Publications. ; , s. 287-288
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Safe disposal of nuclear waste in deep geological repositories requires secure knowledge transfer or knowledge recovery in time spans of many tens of thousands of years. Never before has any detailed record, knowledge or memory been reliably preserved or recovered over comparable time periods.This challenge has been extensively addressed since the late 1980s, initially during the SANDIA workshops in the USA and more recently in the Nuclear Energy Agency/Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (NEA/OECD) project on Preservation of Records, Knowledge and Memory Across Generations (Schröder, 2019). Experts from many disciplines including engineering, the natural sciences, information technology, social studies of science and technology, semiotics, public management, and design as well as artists have contributed to these discussions. Some scholars from the humanities have been involved in working on these issues, especially in recent decades. At the same time, much of the existing work has drawn on assumptions about human history, archaeological monuments and cultural heritage that have been scrutinized and deemed deeply flawed by Joyce (2020).The authors of the present paper are archaeologists and cultural heritage experts. For the past decade, they have been working with the challenge of preserving records, knowledge and memory concerning deep geological disposal sites for nuclear waste (Holtorf and Högberg, 2021). From the perspective of the human sciences, in particular archaeology and heritage studies, the unique task at hand involves not only the previously recognized challenges that require consideration of long-term material durability, linguistic intelligibility, and appropriate sense-making of any communicated information but also two challenges not previously addressed:Human action as informed by cultural and social processes. In designing of various long-term mechanisms, we risk overlooking that what people will do is not going to be governed by mechanics. How human beings learn, reason, value, decide, and act is informed by specific cultural and social processes creating context and meaning. We must avoid ignoring these complexities governing human thinking and agency. This challenge requires more work on understanding how sentient and intelligent beings like humans act in variable contexts across time and space.Our anticipatory assumptions. A proverb states that “nothing ages faster than the future”. In making assumptions about future generations' understandings, meanings, and significances of our nuclear waste we risk “colonizing” the future, fail to embrace variability over time, and miss realizing multiple futures and emerging conditions. We must therefore not foreclose uncertain futures but instead create circumstances favorable for change and transformation of relevant knowledge and memory. This challenge requires more work with processes of translation between generations.The challenges of assessing our anticipatory assumptions and understanding how humans act will also need to be addressed in transmitting records, knowledge and memory for the benefit of future generations.

Nuclear Waste as Critical Heritage

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Within the nuclear environmental humanities, it falls especially to the disciplines of Archaeology and Heritage Studies to develop approaches and perspectives about remembering and planning extending across long periods of time. Archaeology and Heritage Studies are versed in paying attention to both the tangible and the intangible realms and to varying perceptions and indeed, complex interrelations between past, present, and future. Archaeology, in particular, commonly adopts long-term perspectives in research. Archaeologists working in the heritage sector commonly manage tangible and intangible human legacies, the cultural heritage, with present and future needs in mind. In this chapter we offer two arguments to the emerging field of nuclear environmental humanities: firstly, an archaeological understanding of time in the context of historical consciousness, and indeed, as we will argue, future consciousness, and how it can inspire critical thinking about the nuclear domain across disciplines; secondly, the notion of nuclear waste as cultural heritage, in particular, offers critical insights that have the potential to challenge not only current thinking in the nuclear waste sector, but also current thinking in the humanities themselves.

Perceptions of the future in preservation strategies : (Or: why Essly von Eysselsberg’s body is no longer taken across the lake)

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This chapter argues that the long-term accessibility of heritage relies to a great extent on perceptions of the future that are articulated in specific strategies of preservation. It addresses three perceptions of the future: one that assumes ongoing continuity, one that assumes controllable transformation, and one that assumes an eventual break in continuity. The chapter presents some examples from the village of Hallstatt that illustrate how a continuity-oriented perception of the future can facilitate accessibility over several centuries.

The Contemporary Archaeology of Nuclear Waste : Communicating with the Future
- 2016
-
Ingår i: Arkæologisk Forum. - 1399-5545. ; :35, s. 31-37
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The future will differ from what we are used to in the present. Yet in archaeology, the heritage sector and the nuclear waste sector, most assumptions do not build on an understanding of how the future will be different from today. Instead, planning is made as if key aspects of heritage and nuclear waste will not change significantly in the future at all. The present authors are both archaeologists with an interest in applying our academic expertise to challenges in contemporary and future society (Holtorf and Högberg, 2015a). Between 2012 and 2014 we worked on an interdisciplinary research project entitled One hundred thousand years back and forth. Archaeology meets radioactive waste. Based on results from this project, we suggest here that archaeologists and other professionals working in the heritage sector, as well as their institutions, should start thinking in more depth about the future. We suggest that heritage specialists should not only promote historical consciousness but also future consciousness. Both these forms of consciousness are essential for the ability to appreciate the interconnections between past, present and future.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- One of the societal challenges of our time is to design, build and operate repositories for the safe disposal of long-lived nuclear waste. This chapter considers the question of how to manage transmissions of essential records, knowledge and memory concerning final repositories for nuclear waste across long time periods. Most stakeholders in the nuclear waste sector agree that it is important to empower future generations to make informed decisions during any kind of interaction with the repository to avoid inadvertent intrusion or facilitate safe retrieval of any part of the content. The long-term preservation of nuclear waste and the legacy of the nuclear age are not only technical and historical concerns but deeply cultural. Heritage negotiates people’s understanding and a society’s relationship between past, present, and future. This applies to nuclear waste to the same extent as to other forms of cultural heritage.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this text, we argue that the cultural heritage sector, including Heritage Science, needs to address an inherent lack of capability in futures thinking by enhancing foresight and ‘futures literacy’. The sector ought to take seriously the consequences of the insight that the uses and values of cultural heritage in future societies will be different from those in the present and in the past. Foresight and futures literacy will allow the cultural heritage sector to respond to climate change and other global developments, risks and challenges anticipated by futurists.

- In diesem Beitrag argumentieren wir, dass Langzeitzugänglichkeit von Informationen maßgeblich von den Zukunftsbildern geprägt wird, die in konkreten Erhaltungsstrategien ihren Ausdruck finden. Wie wir uns heute die Zukunft vorstellen, beeinflusst auf welche Weise wir etwas bewahren. Die künftige Vergangenheit hängt somit von der gegenwärtigen Zukunft ab. Die Beispiele, die diese These in unserem Artikel entwickeln und illustrieren sollen, haben alle einen Bezug zu dem österreichischen Ort Hallstatt im Salzkammergut. Dadurch wird deutlich, wie an einem einzigen Platz unterschiedliche Zukunftsbilder zusammenspielen und in konkreten Erhaltungsstrategien zu unterschiedlicher Langzeitzugänglichkeit führen.Wir diskutieren in diesem Beitrag drei unterschiedliche Zukunftsbilder. Sie gehen aus von einer sich fortsetzenden Kontinuität, einem kontrollierbaren Wandel beziehungsweise einem früher oder später kommenden Kontinuitätsbruch. Obwohl man vielleicht erwarten könnte, dass Erhaltungsstrategien und auf ihnen beruhende Langzeitzugänglichkeit von Information desto verlässlicher sein werden, je weniger man davon ausgeht, dass die Dinge bleiben wie sie sind, und je mehr man mit Veränderung rechnet, wird unsere Diskussion zeigen, dass dies nicht unbedingt so ist.

- This study investigates how managers and employees at County Museums in Sweden think about, work with, and relate to the future in their daily practice. We examined which tools and routines the museums employ to work concretely with different future perspectives. The study is thus about those forms of future consciousness that exist in the museums. The results show that the future is implicitly present but often remains unarticulated in the work of the museum. The museums work with short future perspectives which are often linked to concrete tasks or development work. The future perspectives at the museums are largely locked in the present or in a near future. Concrete tools, skills and routines to develop future consciousness are lacking. However, the results show that there is great interest and willingness among Swedish County Museums to implement tools, skills, and routines for a more developed engagement with futures.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- All countries that manage nuclear waste will need to store it for a long time. When all the reactors in Sweden have been taken out of use there will be around 12,000 tonnes of highly radioactive waste. For the future safety of humans and nature, the plan is to store the waste for 100,000 years in tunnels drilled 500 metres under ground. Once the waste is in place and the nal repositories are closed, society will be faced with the task of nding ways to keep knowledge of these places alive for a very long time to come. The task is unique. Never before has anyone created information and knowledge intended for someone thousands of years into the future. Between 2012 and 2015 we have worked with the project “One hundred thousand years back and forth – archaeology meets radioactive waste”. We have studied how one can think about past, present and future and about the resources that are needed if we are to be able to envisage a future extending over thousands of years. From a theoretical discussion on the concept of future consciousness, we argue that nal repositories for nuclear waste must be built in a exible manner to be able to work in different ways in relation to many different futures. Storage of radioactive waste embraces noticeable aspects of materiality, and relevant planning and decision-making processes can bene t from archaeological expertise. Long-time nal repositories of nuclear waste also pose challenges to contemporary archaeology. Various ways to conceptualize futures are part of our contemporary society. This has not been studied to any great extent within the eld archaeology of the contemporary world. It is likely that we will hear more in time to come about future consciousness in contemporary archaeology, then in the form of future archaeology.

No future in archaeological heritage management?

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Although the future is mentioned frequently in overarching aims and visions, and it is a major drive in the daily work of archaeological heritage managers and indeed heritage professionals more generally, it remains unclear precisely how an overall commitment to the future can best inform specific heritage practices. It seems that most archaeologists and other heritage professionals cannot easily express how they conceive of the future they work for, and how their work will impact on that future. The future tends to remain implicit in daily practice which operates in a continuing, rolling present. The authors argue that this needs to change because present-day heritage management may be much less beneficial for the future than we commonly expect.

Nuclear waste as cultural heritage of the future : 14361

Ingår i: WM2014 Proceedings. - : WM Symposia.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Archaeology is accustomed to dealing with long term perspectives and to manage human legacies, the cultural heritage. Cultural heritage management and nuclear waste management share concerns with the permanent preservation of material items, long-term memory keeping, and knowledge transfer to future generations. Nuclear waste can be considered as a very particular kind of future cultural heritage. In this paper, we explore the affinities and differences between cultural heritage and nuclear waste through a discussion of the existing divergences of future consciousness in both realms. We argue that making nuclear waste management a question of heritage may contribute to making the inadvertent exposure of future human beings to radioactivity less likely. At the same time, it might contribute to appreciating nuclear waste not only as a threat but also a resource for future generations, thus allowing for perceptions, valuations and uses of this heritage in futures that will radically differ from today.

- In this text we discuss how Swedish contract archaeology can develop its social engagement by creating new areas of relevance to society, beyond the general activities of disseminating results. We do so by giving concrete examples of how this can be done, using archaeological excavations as a starting point. The examples include engaging the local community in future planning for a social sustainable living environment, collaboration with the tourism sector, development of teaching materials for secondary schools, memory training for people with acquired brain damage, and school programs focusing on a socially sustainable and inclusive society. The purpose of the text is to inspire change, by showing development opportunities for future contract archaeology that will benefit both performers and recipients, and contribute to society’s multifaceted needs.

Post-Pandemic Tourism Development : Navigating Uncertainty in the Visitor Economy
- 2023
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has been presenting stakeholders in the visitor economy with an unprecedented level of uncertainty. Sweden’s approach to handling the pandemic, which is viewed as an international exception, and Småland and Öland with its focus on limited-season summer tourism provide an exceptional context to study how key stakeholders deal with relevant challenges from a decision-making perspective, promising insights beyond the immediate study context.The pandemic has been and still is a chance to (re-)engage with the development trajectories of tourism in this area and what kind of futures various local stakeholders envision for it. To this end, it is valuable to evaluate the impact and response to Covid-19 in relation to developing the local UNESCO World Heritage site and to achieving the UN Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development.The interdisciplinary research project documented in this report sought to study how stakeholders in the visitor economy make sense of the uncertainty induced by the current SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in the short- and long-run through different lenses. To this end, we studied how stakeholders in the visitor economy reflected on their decisions to deal with the immediate implications of pandemic tourism and plan to engage them in a forward-looking process of scenario development and action-learning to open horizons that envision the present crisis as a chance to work towards a more sustainable future.The project results address aspects of how the visitor economy in Småland can deal both with the present uncertainty and future crises of a similar nature. In the short-run, we identified how stakeholders in the local visitor economy made sense of the uncertainty of visitor business during the pandemic. This provides points of reflection for the stakeholders involved and suggestions for policy considerations to support the visitor economy for the future. For the long-run, we enhanced futures thinking and discussed development perspectives with stakeholders in the local visitor economy. This is a necessary input to inspiring strategies towards sustainable development beyond the immediate necessities of the present.

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The papers in this issue were first presented at the interdisciplinary conference “Applied Cultural Heritage: How telling the past at historic sites benefits society” held at Linnaeus University in Kalmar, Sweden, 17-19 November 2010. The conference was organised jointly by Linnaeus University, Kalmar County Museum and Bridging Ages, International Organisation in Historic Environment Education and Time Travels. The aim of the conference was to explore how cultural heritage and stories about the past benefit society today. Given the major changes of society in recent decades and a fast developing globalisation, we proposed that it is no longer self-evident which historic sites are meaningful (and to whom), which stories about the past should be told (and why), and how cultural heritage can best benefit society (and what that means). It was therefore time to ask these questions anew and explore them together with practitioners in the heritage sector from around the world.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Abraham Van Luik worked on siting studies for the US during the 1980s as a geochemist analysing candidate deep geologic repository options in multiple rock formations across the United States. He championed efforts to develop international standards for informing future generations about radioactive waste repositories around the world. Two categories of waste pose particular challenges for the future in terms of environmental management and also heritage management: chemo-toxic hazardous wastes from industrial manufacturing and processing as well as radioactive wastes, especially those produced for electricity generation in nuclear plants. Hazardous chemical waste is little-present in the public perception, in contrast to the radioactive wastes, which have achieved a true cult status when it comes to the refusal by society in general and many concerned site locations for permanent disposal in particular.

Cultural heritage, ethics and contemporary migrations
- 2019. - 1
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- Cultural Heritage, Ethics and Contemporary Migrations breaks new ground in our understanding of the challenges faced by heritage practitioners and researchers in the contemporary world of mass migration, where people encounter new cultural heritage and relocate their own. It focuses particularly on issues affecting archaeological heritage sites and artefacts, which help determine and maintain social identity, a role problematised when populations are in flux. This diverse and authoritative collection brings together international specialists to discuss socio-political and ethical implications for the management of archaeological heritage in global society.With contributions by authors from a range of disciplinary backgrounds, including archaeologists, philosophers, cultural historians and custodians of cultural heritage, the volume explores a rich mix of contrasting, yet complementary, viewpoints and approaches. Among the topics discussed are the relations between culture and identity; the potentialities of museums and monuments to support or subvert a people’s sense of who they are; and how cultural heritage has been used to bring together communities containing people of different origins and traditions, yet without erasing or blurring their distinctive cultural features.Cultural Heritage, Ethics and Contemporary Migrations is a crucial text for archaeologists, curators, policymakers and others working in the heritage field, as well as for philosophers, political scientists and other readers interested in the links between immigration and cultural heritage.

GRASCA i praktiken 2015-2024
- 2024
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Den här rapporten för ihop GRASCA:s nio årsrapporter för åren 2015–2024. Den berättar en historia om GRASCA som i första hand inte handlar om pengar (som företagen och universitet är tvungna att fokusera på oftast) och inte heller om uppdragsarkeologi (som GRASCA mest handlade om). Rapporten GRASCA i praktiken handlar i stället om vad vi gjorde med och inom GRASCA under alla år vi var igång tillsammans. Den kompletterar det som för det mesta finns eller kommer finnas tillgängligt på andra håll: alla anteckningarna som togs i mötena av styrelse, ledningsgrupp och handledarkollegium; de individuella studieplaner; dekanbesluten; budgetredovisningar; en rad gemensamma och individuella presentationer och publikationer; och inte minst licentiatuppsatserna och doktorsavhandlingarna som stod i centrum av det mesta. Texterna som samlas här speglar vår gemensamma utveckling inom GRASCA, medan bilderna kanske framför allt väcker minnen av de som var med och det de gjorde. En ordentlig analys och utvärdering av GRASCA återstår att genomföras framöver men här finns en del material som kan belysa vad som hände år för år.

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This interview with Victor Buchli and Gavin Lucas was undertaken over email during the Summer / Autumn of 2013 and coordinated by Alfredo González-Ruibal on behalf of the editorial team: Alfredo González-Ruibal, Rodney Harrison, Cornelius Holtorf and Laurie Wilkie. An initial set of questions was drafted and agreed amongst members of the editorial team, and a series of follow-up questions (indicated by the presence of author’s initials) were subsequently posed in cases where individuals hoped the interviewees might expand on particular points. These have been maintained in the text to allow the reader to follow the various threads which each interviewer chose to pursue.
