Att vara eller inte vara kulturarv : En komparativ analys av svensk världsarvsförvaltning i förhållande till debatten om auktoriserat kulturarv / To be or not to be heritage : A comparative analysis of Swedish WorldHeritage management in relation to the debate concerning authorized cultural heritage

Description

This paper aims to increase knowledge about how discourse is represented in the evaluation and management of tangible cultural heritage by a comparative analysis of the management of two of UNESCO’s World Heritage Sites located in Sweden. By examining the motivations for inscription and the sites’ management plans through critical discourse analysis, this study approaches questions regarding how heritage is constructed and managed. Through a comparison of the case studies and a subsequent discussion of their relation to Laurajane Smith’s concept of Authorized Heritage Discourse, this paper highlights some issues that the cultural heritage sector is facing today regarding social and political dimensions of cultural heritage.
