Description
The Politics of Heritage in Africa: Economies, Histories, and Infrastructures edited by A. B. B. Wilks and C. C. D. Harrison explores the complex dynamics of heritage management and preservation across the African continent. The book examines how heritage—encompassing historical sites, cultural practices, and artifacts—intersects with economic interests, historical narratives, and infrastructural developments. The contributors analyze various case studies to highlight how heritage practices are influenced by and contribute to local and national economies, political agendas, and social identities. They discuss the role of heritage in shaping national identities, its impact on tourism and economic development, and the tensions between global heritage frameworks and local values. The book provides a nuanced understanding of how heritage is negotiated and contested in Africa, reflecting broader themes of power, identity, and cultural preservation in a rapidly changing world.
