Heritage occupies a privileged position within the built environment. This book examines historic preservation as an enterprise of ideas, methods, institutions, and practices that must reorient toward a new horizon in which equity and sustainability become critical guideposts for policy evolution.

The field of historic preservation is becoming more socially and culturally inclusive, through more diversity in the profession and enhanced community engagement. Bringing together a broad range of practitioners, this book documents historic preservation's progress toward inclusivity and explores further steps to be taken.

Bringing together leading conservation scholars and professionals from around the world, this volume offers a timely look at values-based approaches to heritage management.
