Archaeological Heritage Management renews the important global debate on the organization, management and legislation of archaeological heritage. No longer confined to centralized state control, contemporary approaches are collaborative – engaging communities, private individuals, museums, and local authorities, with the knowledge that there is no one simple solution, valid for everyone and forever.This volume, based on a major session at the 30th European Association of Archaeologists Annual Meeting (Rome, August 2024), contains contributions from experts across a range of backgrounds, generations and career stages, exploring archaeological policies, participatory best practices, and the increasing need to involve professionals in the decision-making process. It offers a narrated journey that begins in Europe, continues in the broader Euro-Asian continent, and concludes in Latin America, through multiple nations and continents and their historical-archaeological heritage and their peculiarities, addressing not only the structural and political aspect of functioning, but also local communities.More than a collection of case studies, this book is a call for a shared, interdisciplinary, and international dialogue on managing the past in a connected, collaborative future and is a key source of information for archaeological and heritage management practitioners and those who care about heritage across Europe and beyond.
