New in the Springer Book Series: Appropriating Sacred Spaces Heritage Politics in Myanmar by Clara Rellensmann
As part of the Springer Book Series 'Studies in Art, Heritage, Law and the Market', " Appropriating Sacred Spaces
Heritage Politics in Myanmar" by Clara Rellensmann is now available.
The book provides deep insights into heritage politics in Myanmar on the basis of the conservation history of Bagan and its entanglement in national politics. It particularly investigates the heritage practice of the dictatorial regime that ruled Myanmar from 1988 to 2011 and highlights the implications of both the reconciliation politics of Aung San Suu Kyi’s NLD government (2016-2020) and the UNESCO World Heritage System.
