Description

This book upturns the conventional understanding of heritage, challenging widespread notions about how we relate to and why we preserve the past.Heritage research is often based on the assumption that heritage is something 'given' to us, that is good and valuable in its own right. However, by looking at the historical and cultural roots of heritage and its development through the Enlightenment, modernity and capitalism, Pablo Alonso Gonzalez shows that it is in fact a system pervaded by fetishistic social relationships, embedded in capitalism, and not as benign as it appears.Focusing on a case study in in the region of Maragater�a, Spain, Alonso Gonzalez explores the ethnic and racial discrimination towards the local population in the context of Spanish nationalism, and how this formed the region's heritage today. By challenging mainstream existing scholarship in the field, The Heritage Machine rethinks the relations between heritage studies and converging disciplines, from anthropology to cultural and memory studies.
