Changing Concepts of Temporality in Cultural Heritage and Themed Environments
- 2016
-
Ingår i: Time and Temporality in Theme Parks. - Hannover : Wehrhahn Verlag. - 9783865255488 ; , s. 115-130
-
Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Theme parks and other themed environments commonly evoke stories about the past in order to provide their customers with enjoyable experiences. The underlying visions of the past can easily be dismissed as creative fiction drawing on common stereotypes. Usually, these visions are only very loosely related either to historical accounts based on academic research or to genuine cultural heritage. However, rather than dwelling on anachronisms in theme parks, I am interested in this paper in exploring discernible connections between cultural heritage and artificiality, authenticity and theming. Even cultural heritage needs to evoke stories about the past to provide visitors with enjoyable experiences. I argue that an important precondition for that to succeed is not the historical age of an observed object but its pastness. Pastness denotes the perceived quality that a given object is of the past. Pastness is not immanent in an object but may result from the object’s appearance (e.g. patina), its context (e.g. in a museum), or its correspondence with preconceived expectations among the audience. Therefore, pastness can – and indeed must – be designed and managed. There are thus important lessons to be learned from successful theme parks for cultural heritage management. I conclude by speculating about the social significance of fictitious heritage in themed environments.

Nachhaltigkeit – Erhalten und Veränderung : Ein Sokratischer Dialog

Ingår i: Angst, Ekel, Scheitern. - Berlin : Urbanophil. - 9783982495927 ; , s. 16-18

Bokkapitel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Es ist ein grundlegendes Paradox unserer Zeit, dass Kultur und Kulturerbe oft von Prinzipien der Kontinuität und des Erhaltens ausgehen, während die globalen Herausforderungen unserer Zeit, die im Zusammenhang mit unzureichender Nachhaltigkeit gesehen werden, ausgerechnet eine Bereitschaft zu Veränderung, Anpassung und Umwandlung erfordern. Dieses Spannungsfeld berührt grundlegende Aspekte unseres Zusammenlebens und ist in seinen Konsequenzen politisch kontrovers. Bei der Diskussion über Nachhaltigkeit geht es daher oft um Lösungen für die allgemeine Gesellschaft, wobei aber die Bedürfnisse und Meinungen der Einzelpersonen häufig vernachlässigt werden. Dieses Paradox liegt den meist hitzigen Diskussionen über Nachhaltigkeit zugrunde, in denen die Teilnehmenden einander nicht mehr zuhören und verstehen wollen. Einander zu verstehen und unterschiedliche Meinungen zu begreifen, ist aber eine der wichtigsten Voraussetzungen, um große gesellschaftliche Probleme zu lösen.

On Pastness : A Reconsideration of Materiality in Archaeological Object Authenticity
- 2013
-
Ingår i: Anthropological Quarterly. - : Project Muse. - 0003-5491 .- 1534-1518. ; 86:2, s. 427-444
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article argues for a modified constructivist approach to archaeological object authenticity which takes the object’s materiality seriously. This is accomplished by defining authenticity not in relation to the age of an object but to its age-value, i.e., the quality or condition of being (of the) past—its pastness. Pastness is the result of a particular perception or experience. It derives from, among others, material clues indicating wear and tear, decay, and disintegration. These material clues, and thus the presence of pastness, can be created entirely in the present.

Progress report: UNESCO Chair on Heritage Futures : Period: 09/2017 – 08/2018
- 2018
-
Rapport (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Launched in 1992, the UNESCO Chair Programme addresses pressing challenges in society. The chairs serve as thinktanks and bridgebuilders between human communities, civil society, academia, and policy-making, generating innovation through research, informing policy decisions and establishing new teaching initiatives. In 2017 Linnaeus University was awarded a UNESCO Chair on Heritage Futures.This is one of eight UNESCO Chairs in Sweden and the only one in the area of culture.The Chair is dedicated to developing professional strategies concerning the role of heritage in shaping the future. We ask questions such as: how does specific heritage of various kinds contribute to improving future society? What heritage needs to be preserved for the benefit of future generations? When will these future generations live and what can we know about people's needs and desires in that future? How can different domains of heritage learn from each other regarding practices of future-making?

Progress report: UNESCO Chair on Heritage Futures : Period: 09/2018 – 08/2019
- 2019
-
Rapport (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Over its first two years, the UNESCO Chair on Heritage Futures at Linnaeus University has been engaging in an extensive programme of national and international collaboration in research and training. We presented our work and agenda on many occasions in Sweden and around the world. We established contacts to various programmes and activities in UNESCO, to the Swedish Delegation to UNESCO, the Swedish UNESCO Commission, and began collaboration with other UNESCO Chairs in Sweden and internationally. Over the past year we co-organized two large events in Stockholm and in Amsterdam. In this report, we document the progress made by the entire team over our second year of activities.BackgroundHeritage futures are concerned with the roles of heritage in managing the relations between present and future societies, e.g. through anticipation and planning. Our work is dedicated to developing professional strategies that can enhance how heritage shapes the future. We ask questions such as: Which future do we preserve the heritage for? Which heritage will benefit future generations most? How can we build capacity in future thinking (futures literacy) among heritage professionals worldwide?The UNESCO Chair Programme addresses pressing challenges in society. The chairs serve as think-tanks and bridge-builders between human communities, civil society, academia, and policy-making, generating innovation through research, informing policy decisions and establishing new teaching initiatives.

Rapport (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Over its first three years, the UNESCO Chair on Heritage Futures at Linnaeus University has been engaging in an extensive programme of national and international collaboration in research and training. We presented our work and agenda on many occasions in Sweden and around the world. In this report, we document the progress made by the entire team over our third year of activities. Please note especially the many topical publications this year.The impact of Covid-19 meant that after mid-March our planned trips for research and conferences were cancelled. But it also meant that we got used to efficient meetings with colleagues in Zoom and other digital environments and that we had more time to write at home. We also got to think about the implications of the corona virus, which still holds the world in its grip, for heritage, heritage futures and the future of society at large (see following double page).BackgroundHeritage futures are concerned with the roles of heritage in managing the relations between present and futuresocieties, e.g. through anticipation, planning, and prefiguration. Our work is dedicated to developingprofessional strategies that can enhance how heritage shapes the future. We ask questions such as: Which future do we preserve the heritage for? Which heritage will benefit future generations most? How can we build capacity in future thinking (futures literacy) among heritage professionals worldwide?The UNESCO Chair Programme addresses pressing challenges in society.
