Cultural Landscapes as Resource for the Revitalization of Cultural Heritage and a Sustainable Regional Development

This anthology offers an accessible and exciting read on cultural landscape(s) and their heritage as resources for regional development. It presents thirteen reflection papers that are based on inter- and transdisciplinary exchanges from 2020-23 as part of Heidelberg University’s Flagship Initiative “Transforming Cultural Heritage.” The contributions bring “classical” heritage research disciplines such as archaeology and history into a vivid and fruitful dialogue with social sciences, area studies, and practical conservation. Topics discussed include the promotion of local characteristics and knowledge as well as a more community-orientated landscape stewardship in Europe and Asia.

Diamantis Panagiotopoulos is Professor at the Institute of Classical Archaeology and Byzantine Archaeology, University of Heidelberg. His research interests include the social structures of the Aegean civilizations, Aegean imagery, the interconnections between the Aegean and the Near East in the second millennium B.C., ancient sealing practices, and modern strategies for managing and promoting cultural heritage.

Fabienne Wallenwein is Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Heidelberg Centre for Transcultural Studies. She studied East Asian Studies, Chinese Studies and Economics at Heidelberg University, Beijing Foreign Studies University and Fudan University in Shanghai. She coordinated the interdisciplinary research tandem “Cultural Landscape as a Resource for Social Innovation” in Heidelberg University’s flagship initiative “Transforming Cultural Heritage.” Her research interests include cultural heritage and conservation, cultural landscapes, regional disparities, housing, architecture, urbanization and urban sustainability in China and Greater China.
