Samenvatting

This book critically examines the uses and abuses of heritage, as well as the critical issue of resilience to these abuses, through analysis of a range of case studies from modern-day Turkey. It argues that exercising the right to heritage is of great significance to the cause of social justice and the path to sustainable societies, making the case that social equality is only possible by freely exercising the right to culture.

The unique case studies, including the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Ani and Sur City Walls, Munzur Valley in Tunceli province and Gezi Park in Istanbul, are brought together in a coherent and cohesive way to not only examine patterns and differences in approaches to heritage within these specific contexts, but to serve as models for abuses of heritage across the world. The book's findings are significant for the heritage field in two ways: first, it exposes the discourses used by nation states to manipulate and destroy cultural heritage, promoting both awareness and effective professional approaches to heritage management and preservation. Second, it outlines the ways in which cultural heritage resists such discourses of heritage and identity destruction by reflecting on such questions as the extent to which cultural heritage can be used to divide, oppress and limit human rights, the extent to which minority groups can freely exercise cultural heritage as part of cultural and human rights, and how cultural heritage can be used as a tool for resilience, social justice, community sustainability and reconciliation.
