An accurate analysis of the subject of conservation and awareness of cultural-archaeological heritage requires going beyond the recurrent idea of the systematic external destruction and placing the discussion deeper into the Palestinian courtyard. Palestinians have more than 15 years of work in conservation – a good ground to conduct this discussion over and an inherent call to bear more responsibility in determining priorities and agendas in conservation. Heritage usually defines a hegemonic, highly institutionalized project of commemoration that is productive of collective identities—most often in the function of nation-building. In the critical literature on the subject, it is frequently opposed to the counter memories it oppresses.
Heritage is the shared past of the nation, which manifests itself in a monument to fallen soldiers or a site of national memory once visited as a child. Heritage also refers to the apparatus of institutions and regulations set in place as part of the state’s bureaucracy to administer its significant, distinctive past and the national cultural objects deemed worthy of preservation. In contrast to Smith, I look at how heritage participates in the government of territories and populations under conditions of multi-sited, graduated authority.
