CONTESTED HISTORIES
"The Contested Histories Initiative seeks practical remedies to contestations over historical markers in public spaces as part of broader efforts to create more inclusive and equitable societies, particularly for and with communities that have been marginalised or disenfranchised due to race, ethnicity, gender, or other affiliations."
An example:
VICTORY MONUMENT (Bolzano, Italy): "The Victory Monument in Bolzano was erected on the orders of Benito Mussolini in 1928. Since then, it has been at the symbolic centre of ethnic clashes between the German- and Italian-speaking communities, as well as a symbol of the unresolved legacy of Italian Fascism".#ContestedHeritage #Heritage #CulturalHeritage #Fascism #ContestedHistories #Italy #Mussolini #NegativeHeritage #History #Architecture

"Modernist heritage and memory politics in Spain: shifting values for the adaptive reuse of Seville’s former police headquarters" by Plácido González Martínez (2023). #OpenAccess
"This study aimed to explore the important factors determining the conservation and adaptive reuse of Seville’s former police headquarters, whose significance can be divided into aesthetic and political factors. Both factors follow dominant discourses that ultimately rely on a top-down perspective of heritage identification, documentation, conservation and management. Further explorations of the building’s public value will show to what extent these official discourses and public opinion may have aligned or not and may constitute a reference for future decision-making processes".

"Colonial statues in post-colonial Africa: a multidimentional heritage" by Sophia Labadi (2023).
"Is history being destroyed when colonial statues are removed from public space? This paper has explained that history is often being made when they are removed. Indeed, the hidden motivations for the construction and/or upkeep of these statues can then be revealed, along with their entangled colonial or racist legacies. Besides, their removals can aid in rectifying history, exposing in some cases the Eurocentrism of public spaces, and European epistemic domination. Such removal makes space for the erection of memorials for local heroes, who might have played more significant roles than colonial or racist figures".

"Critics say controversial plans will fulfil dictator’s wish for building to become district authority offices".

"Earlier this summer, the Austrian interior ministry released the winning architectural design for the site […]. The ultimate goal of these changes is to “neutralize” the history and symbolism of the house, officials said, preventing it from serving as a pilgrimage site for neo-Nazis in the future."

FICTIONAL AND FICTIONALISED RELIGIONS AS HERITAGE? REFLECTIONS ON THE OBJECT OF CRITICAL HERITAGE STUDIES by Mathilde van Dijk (International Journal of Heritage Studies, 2023).
"Heritage discourses and fictional narratives are not as far from each other as seems obvious. Rather, they operate on a sliding scale. Fans of certain media, whether they become adherents of a fiction-based religion or whether the fictions are meaningful to them in another way, visit the sites in which their favourite series or film were shot, use phrases from their favourite films or series, attend role-playing events and so on and so forth. Some fans do this individually; others gather in communities, on the internet, physically or both. Their favourite fictions become a building block of their identities".

An interesting view on how political vandalism can transform contested heritage: “Transforming problematic commemorations through vandalism” (Chong-Ming Lim, 2020). You may not entirely agree, but it gives food for thought.

What to do with #NegativeHeritage? Some ideas from #Canada.
▶︎Guidance for Practice on Colonial Statues and Memorials Sites (2021): "Interventions have been and will continue to be carried out on public colonial statues with paint, messages, objects, symbols, and tools. For many, these materials and actions are now part of the physical, conceptual, and historical integrity of these objects".

An interesting reflection by archaeologist Gillian Carr on the difference between legacy and heritage: "To turn something into heritage is an active choice, a decision about what is of value and what a community is happy to embrace as a part of its identity. What remains as a legacy and what is chosen as heritage makes a statement about who you are or want to be and how you are happy to be seen and judged by others".
