Urban Centres in Asia and Latin Americaheritage and identities in changing urban landscapes /[electronic resource] :by Simone Sandholz. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2017. - xxiv, 379 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - The urban book series,2365-757X. - Urban book series..

Introduction -- Theoretical Background -- Heritage and Conservation in Changing Environments -- Urban Regeneration -- Heritage and Identities in Selected Urban Centres of the Global South -- Discussion and Conclusions -- "Our Town!" Final Considerations.

This book presents an overview of the challenges that cities in Latin America and Asia are facing regarding the preservation of their tangible and intangible heritage. It argues that urban heritage has a value that transcends the mere object's value, constituting a crucial source of identity for urban inhabitants. The same is true for the urban intangible values and practices that are often associated with places or buildings. The empirical research is based on case studies of Kathmandu in Nepal, Yogyakarta in Indonesia and Recife in Brazil; three cities that still comprise core areas with a high percentage of historic fabric and distinctive cultural expressions. The comparative study of the three areas reveals the similarities and differences of urban conservation policies, past and present upgrading strategies in the core areas, and the importance of tangible and intangible heritage. All three cities demonstrate that urban heritage, habits and beliefs are still of importance to the population. While there are significant differences in the kind and level of protection the respective legal system provides, partly uncontrolled urban dynamics pose a threat to all of them. The text is based on a PhD thesis submitted to the Institute of Geography, University of Innsbruck, Austria.
