Dear all,
This is a reminder that we are still accepting sessions and papers for the
Japanese Inter-Congress, which will be held 12-15th, January, 2006
The web address is http://wacosaka.jp/
The Inter-Congress theme, Kyosei-no-koukogaku: Coexisting in the Past and
Present, will provide a forum for examining a range of issues relating to
the study and practices of archaeology in the past and present. There will
be three main areas of focus:
* Learning from the past.
* Public archaeology.
* Cultural heritage management.
There will be opportunities for archaeologists to explore questions such as:
* How do Indigenous peoples and immigrant/colonial powers coexist in
a single society?
* How do we develop practices to allow cultural heritage to be
preserved for study in the present (and the future)?
* Are there ways that the past and present can comfortably coexist in
our archaeological practices?
* How do we 'teach' coexistence?
Through Kyosei-no-koukogaku: Coexisting in the Past and Present
archaeologists will address the issues of cultural symbiosis in the past
and it's implications for how to coexist with the cultural heritage around
us in a fruitful and productive manner so that all people can better learn
to appreciate the strength gained through mutual expression of differences
and so that cultural heritage is preserved for future generations.
Cheers,
Claire
