Zusammenfassung: | "'International heritage instruments and climate change' considers the current and potential effectiveness of two UNESCO instruments, the 1972 'Convention concerning the protection of the world cultural and natural heritage' (the World Heritage Convention) and the 2003 'Convention for the safeguarding of the intangible cultural heritage' (the Intangible Cultural Heritage Convention), in protecting and safeguarding the world's cultural heritage against the escalating threat from climate change. The book opens with a discussion of cultural heritage, the conventions, the science of climate change and related philosophy. It then considers the threat that climate change poses to cultural heritage, both directly and indirectly (through climate change's effects on humanity). Following this is a forensic interrogation of the conventions to determine their likely effectiveness. Questions posed relate to climate change vulnerability, lega efficacy, sustainable development and human issues such as displacement, health threats, security, climate justice, ethics and impacts leading to marginality and cultural loss. Recommendations are made as to how the conventions might be fortified to better protect and safeguard cultural heritage. Finally the book presents a case study built around the culturally rich region of Leh, Ladakh, which was recently devastated by climate change linked flooding and landslides. The authors conclude that cultural heritage protection and safeguarding is indivisible from the survival of civilisation. Adaptive measures to climate change can only be of limited temporary help providing little more than palliation. Mitigation is essential to the continuation of both civilisation and cultural heritage. Strengthened conventions, boldly administered and publicly engaged are seen as potentially providing an improved change for both heritage and humanity."--Back cover |
