This article aims to high…

Heritage Values in the Context of Community Archaeology
Cultural heritage values can shape community archaeology initiatives regarding what, how, and why to investigate or preserve. Community archaeology is ideal for creating multitemporal values that offer diverse interpretations of a particular place or object. These new heritage values are created through participatory strategies and amplify marginalised voices through multivocal narratives. The otherness that comes with these values sparks new con…
Introduction: The Agency of Heritage Value(s)
The decision to convene this special issue was inspired by the success of a session at the 29th Meeting of the European Association of Archaeologists (EAA) in August 2023 in Belfast, Northern Irela
Recovering the Memories of the Capdella Cardboard Hospital Through Community Archaeology
This study reveals the early results of diverse community archaeology activities taking place in a contemporary archaeological site, a cardboard hospital built in 1912 in the Vall Fosca (Catalan Pyrenees). This isolated valley, formerly used to breed cattle, had three hydroelectric power facilities erected in the twentieth century. In 2019, the Torre Capdella Town Council and the National Museum of Science and Technology of Catalonia initiated a …
Dissecting authorised participation in cultural heritage
Participatory processes are a democratic tool in the field of cultural heritage, but what happens when the whole process revolves around a set of expert premises? How symbolic and authoritative would such participation be? This article will reflect on the dynamics of citizen participation and the power of institutional narratives focused on urban cultural heritage. Thus, this work proposes a methodological review and discussion through a case stu…

The authors conceptualise urban placemaking as a dynamic and complex social assemblage. Heritage is one of the many dimensions of such a complex and dynamic urban assembly. Based on the approach to urban assemblage theory, the authors aim to uncover how postindustrial …
Evolución de los valores del patrimonio cultural
Heritage values are part of the discourses associated with cultural heritage management in various disciplines, such as Anthropology, Urban Planning, Geography, and Sociology. This article proposes how these values are shaped and how they have been transformed over time. We will discuss how heritage has shifted from static epistemic positions to more dynamic ones, emphasizing a reflection on the current participatory trend, in which society is th…

Se trata de un manuscrito de carácter metodológico donde se reivindica la integración de técnicas etnográficas en las propuestas de conservación de los yacimientos arqueológicos urbanos. Las interacciones que suceden entre los restos y el pú…
Analizando el valor patrimonial de las transformaciones urbanas en Barcelona
Las ciudades son asentamientos complejos, densamente poblados, que se encuentran en constante transformación. ¿Protegemos las ciudades como imágenes congeladas, sin tener en cuenta los procesos que en ellas acontecen?, ¿qué “patrimonios” conservamos? Estos cambios, que atienden a distintos orígenes, usos e intereses, conforman una esencia multi-capa única, un palimpsesto dónde unas estructuras se han conservado y otras han perecido; donde unas hi…
Dios Papá / Dios Mamá: Cristianismo liberacionista en el área de mujeres de Frontera Comalapa

La reflexión está centrada en la …
Analysing Heritage and Participation in the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona: Some Methodological Insights
Throughout this work, we will explore different methodologies applied for the study of the relation ship between the archaeological heritage located in public space, and the social fabric of the Gothic Quarter in Barcelona. The presence of archaeological elements confers a dialogue between the ruins and the quarter’s inhabitants that different agents can use at different times. This study explores avenues to know and establish new dialogues, that…
Hacia una conservación arqueológica social en Barcelona
Este artículo busca explorar la relación existente entre las políticas culturales aplicables y los habitantes de aquellos espacios urbanos del centro de Barcelona que cuentan con yacimientos arqueológicos, como la zona de Sotstinent Navarro. Este estudio enfocará el concepto de conservación en dos perspectivas. Por una parte el papel que desempeña la conservación entendida como gestión de patrimonio, por otra, cómo ella en sí misma se puede enten…
