Hello all,
As a followup to my recent email, I'm now putting together a panel for SHA
in Oakland in 2024 about cultural heritage policy, legal issues, political
economy, and how that affects descendant communities and stakeholders'
experience of advocating for archaeological places important to them. I
welcome additional papers in the session, and the abstract is below. Topics
relevant to tribal communities are especially welcomed given the conference
location! If interested, please get in touch by late Thursday or early
Friday morning to allow us to finalize the submission of your paper before
the deadline on *Saturday July 15th*.
Thanks so much!
Ellen
Session: Cultural Heritage Laws and Policies, Political Economy, and the
Community Importance of Archaeological Sites
A significant portion of archaeology across the world is now conducted
because of cultural heritage laws, policies, and regulations, and is funded
not by passionate researchers or stakeholder communities, but by proponents
who are required to pay for it to complete their projects. This session
will explore the challenges and opportunities of archaeological
investigations that occur within a process that is regulated or influenced
by government policy, considering the roles of archaeological researchers
and companies; descendant communities; project proponents; tribes;
consulting parties; and local, state, and federal government agencies.
Papers in the session will explore the political economy of these dynamics,
exploring how archaeological outcomes are influenced by financial capacity,
political access, and legal systems. The session will also explore how
groups with heightened connections to these archaeological places, such as
tribes, consulting parties, and descendant families and communities,
navigate these dynamics when working to interpret and preserve their
heritage.
