Beskrivning

This book advances the understanding and process of community participation in cultural heritage management within the Chinese context of rapidly urbanising development. Results show that Chinese community participation in cultural heritage management has yet to find a firm foothold. Based on local contextual characteristics, it needs to develop a balanced methodology of both top-down and bottom-up processes to more directly include the needs, interests and dreams of residents and better face the challenges of Chinese rapid urbanisation.
