The Palgrave Encyclopedia of Cultural Heritage and Conflict critically analyses the relationship between cultural heritage and conflict as well as the tangible and intangible remnants, traces and spaces of competing heritages and memories of the past in the present. The interdisciplinary scope of the encyclopaedia breaks new ground in the study of contemporary narratives of cultural heritage and conflict and the ways in which they broaden public understandings of the complex spacio-temporal dynamics between heritage, memory, conflict, and identity. By crossing academic, artistic and professional boundaries, the encyclopedia aims to contribute to a better understanding of the extent to which practices and discourses of heritage and conflict operate as vehicles at local, national and transnational levels.
