Reviews

"""Professors Lixinski and Zhu harmonize a number of diverse voices to raise a chorus that links cultural heritage to both war and peace. Their volume tilts towards an exploration of how cultural property protections, and discourse around culture, can help sustain a durable peace. On this note, this volume also opens another door: to interrogate, and clarify, what exactly is meant by peace. Heritage, Conflict, and Peace-Building offers a dynamic array of contributions that traverse time, theme, and place. Throughout, the editors’ steady hand guides while also igniting creativity. In short, this volume is indispensable reading regarding how to preserve cultural heritage while enhancing peace."" ~ Mark A. Drumbl, Class of 1975 Alumni Professor, Director, Transnational Law Institute, Washington and Lee University ""While UNESCO’s stated goal is to ‘build peace in the hearts of men and women’, its reliance on heritage to achieve this minimises the contested nature of some heritage sites, objects and documents. Heritage and peace-making are not always natural allies. Contested heritage has exacerbated rather than alleviated some conflicts. This book recognises the complexities surrounding some heritage, and the fact that resolution is not a straightforward process. Its case studies offer possible pathways to resolving heritage conflicts through contestation, negotiation and dialogue that will lead to reconciliation and peace. It is recommended reading for all heritage specialists."" ~ Roslyn Russell PhD, Chair, UNESCO Australian Memory of the World Committee"
