The Protection of Cultural Assets

Overview & Synopsis

Bringing together 21 contributions by researchers from Poland and Ukraine, this volume offers a rich interdisciplinary exploration of the protection and promotion of cultural heritage. Moving between theoretical reflection and practical perspectives, it engages with questions in the fields of philosophy, law, public administration, and cultural management. The authors consider the complex challenges facing heritage protection today, particularly in times of armed conflict and social crisis, while drawing attention to the vital role of public institutions, civic organisations, and local communities in safeguarding tradition. At the same time, the volume underscores the importance of cooperation, new technologies, and grassroots activities in shaping effective and forward-looking approaches to cultural heritage protection.
