Description

The Twentieth-Century Historic Thematic Framework is a tool for identifying and assessing the heritage of the twentieth-century. It is a way to organize and define history in order to help identify heritage sites and place them in context. It is not a history of the twentieth century, nor is it a database of significant sites, but instead is an analysis of the century's development, emphasizing global forces, trends, and phenomena that shaped the built environment. Commissioned by the Getty Conservation Institute (GCI) working in collaboration with the ICOMOS Twentieth Century Heritage International Scientific Committee, it identifies the principal social, technological, political, and economic drivers that shaped the buildings, cities, industries and landscapes of the twentieth century globally. These have been distilled into ten succinct themes:1.Rapid Urbanization and the Growth of Large Cities2.Accelerated Scientific and Technological Development3.Mechanized and Industrialized Agriculture4.World Trade and Global Corporations5.Transportation Systems and Mass Communication6.Internationalization, New Nation-States, and Human Rights7.Conserving the Natural Environment, Buildings, and Landscapes8.Popular Culture and Tourism9.Religious, Educational, and Cultural Institutions10.War and its AftermathThe Twentieth-Century Historic Thematic Framework is offered freely for use, trial, debate, and discussion to support the conservation of significant heritage places of the twentieth century. It is a tool that can be utilized and adapted by anyone involved in heritage conservation around the world. Our hope is that it will aid many forms of research, analysis, and survey work, and ultimately help sustain and conserve the heritage of the twentieth century.
