Subject-object perceptions of heritage
A railway or any other form of heritage site may be perceived as a subject or an object-orientated experience. While the former invites an emotional reaction based on personal association, the later suggests a detached response grounded in a transfer of knowledge. This paper considers the role of heritage legislation in shaping such perceptions. Using archival research and site observations, the paper specifically examines the impact of different…
A Future for the Past
Industrial regions across the developed world have experienced a period of steady decline since the 1960s. The regeneration of former industrial sites, particularly for tourism, has become an expedient strategy for targeting the economic and social deprivation often associated with de-industrialization. This places significant expectations on heritage not only as a contributor to the more immediate regeneration process but also as a vehicle for l…
Evaluating social sustainability in historic urban environments
Government policies aimed at the alleviation of poverty and social exclusion have been moving toward a multi-faceted approach that includes community capacity building and collaborative partnerships.

This paper considers the relationship between heritage tourism and sustainable development, with special reference to World Heritage Sites (WHSs). It notes that while WHS status is not necessarily linked to tourism growth, all WHSs must now develop and implement a management plan to mitigate tourism impacts and sustain site significance. The paper explores the concept of sustainable heritage tourism and identifies two key principles of sustainabl…
A Framework for Sustainable Heritage Management
In 2002, the World Heritage Committee declared heritage to be ‘an instrument for the sustainable development of all societies’. The term ‘sustainable development’, however, is inscribed with a complex economic, environmental and social agenda that challenges contemporary World Heritage management practice. This paper draws on a content analysis of six industrial UK World Heritage Site management plans. The analysis focuses on the extent that each…
