Kim and Zoh bring together a team of contributors to analyse the role of heritage studies across Asia, and its impact on Asia and its constituent countries. Is there such a thing as ‘Asian heritage’? Is it more helpful to understand Asia as a single unit, or as a set of sub- regions? What can we learn about Asia’s present through its archaeology and heritage? Covering a wide range of countries, including Afghanistan, Cambodia, China, Korea, Laos, Myanmar, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam, the contributors to this book address these key questions. In doing so they look at a number of critical issues, such as UNESCO World Heritage status, cultural propaganda, cultural erasure and difficult heritage. While addressing Asia’s past they also observe key issues within present- day Asia, further providing conceptual and practical insights into the methods that are being applied to the study of Asia’s heritage today. A valuable resource for scholars and students of Asian history and culture, archaeology, heritage studies, anthropology and religious studies.

This book examines, discusses, and questions the various remnants and legacies of colonialism in post-colonial Asia today through the interdisciplinary concept and lens of ‘heritage’. It shows that although ‘colonial Asia’ and ‘heritage’ both appear to share the category of ‘the past’, they are both embedded and reoccur in and for the present, whether it be through narratives, oral legacies, memories, architecture, or artefacts. While varying in degrees and impacts, colonialism in Asia has had significant, lasting, and deep influences on present-day Asia, and beyond. This book focuses on both the tangible and intangible legacies and lasting influences by exploring which parts have been intentionally preserved, commemorated, romanticised, promoted, fabricated, ignored, blurred, contested, tabooed, or politicised and for what purpose. Ultimately, this book is interested in underpinning which parts of Asia’s colonial past have been selected and presented as ‘heritage’ in the present day, and which parts are being used or researched in the present for political, economic, or academic purposes. It is relevant to researchers across the disciplinary spectrum of Asian studies.
