Summary:How do governments design their strategy for heritage property? What do they try to accomplish in their laws and their tax systems to favour the re-use of older buildings, districts and cities? What institutional framework can assist the restoration of tourist designations and the conservation of neighbourhoods? In this international study, 18 experts from 10 countries describe the legal challenges and solutions relating to such property. Beyond a carefully described theoretical framework, actual case studies demonstrate how communities and countries can make adjustments to their legislation so that older buildings can be better protected. This book stems from an international conference at Smolenice Castle in Slovakia in November 1994.
