Description

Books : Textbook : English
From ancient Maya
cities in Mexico and Central America to the Taj Mahal in India, cultural heritage sites around the world are being drawn
into the wave of privatization that has already swept through such economic sectors as telecommunications,
transportation, and utilities. As nation-states decide they can no longer afford to maintain cultural properties?or find
it economically advantageous not to do so in the globalizing economy?private actors are stepping in to excavate,
conserve, interpret, and represent archaeological and historical sites. But what are the ramifications when a
multinational corporation, or even an indigenous village, owns a piece of national patrimony which holds cultural and
perhaps sacred meaning for all the country's people, as well as for visitors from the rest of the world?

In
this ambitious book, Lisa Breglia investigates "heritage" as an arena in which a variety of private and public
actors compete for the right to benefit, economically and otherwise, from controlling cultural patrimony. She presents
ethnographic case studies of two archaeological sites in the Yucat?n Peninsula?Chich?n Itz? and Chunchucmil and their
surrounding modern communities?to demonstrate how indigenous landholders, foreign archaeologists, and the Mexican state
use heritage properties to position themselves as legitimate "heirs" and beneficiaries of Mexican national
patrimony. Breglia's research masterfully describes the "monumental ambivalence" that results when local
residents, excavation laborers, site managers, and state agencies all enact their claims to cultural patrimony. Her
findings make it clear that informal and partial privatizations?which go on quietly and continually?are as real a threat
to a nation's heritage as the prospect of fast-food restaurants and shopping centers in the ruins of a sacred
site.
