Managing Archaeological Resources: Global Context, National Programs, Local
Actions

Edited by Francis P McManamon, Andrew Stout, and Jodi A Barnes 

July 2008, 320 pages, $79.00 cloth

 

It is common to hear or read about conflicts in various parts of the world
related to the preservation or representation of archaeological resources.
In a snapshot of 21st century archaeological resource management as a global
enterprise, these contributors show the range of activities, issues, and
solutions undertaken by contemporary managers of heritage sites around the
world. They show how the linkages between global archaeology and funding
organizations, national policies, practices, and ideologies, and local
populations and their cultural and economic interests foster complexity of
the issues at all levels. Case materials from five continents introduce
common themes of archaeologist relations with descendant groups, public
outreach, national/local relationships, and data and site preservation.
