Keywords:	Heritage Management

Description:	This monograph analyzes current cultural resource management, archeological heritage management, and exhibition practices and policies in the People’s Republic of China, where state of fi cials, preservationists, and other interested parties seek to balance the needs and demands of heritage preservation with rapid economic and social changes. On the one hand, state-supported development policies and projects often threaten and in some cases lead to the destruction of archeological and cultural sites. On the other hand, current national cultural policies also encourage the preservation, renovation, and in some situations reconstruction of precisely such sites as heritage and tourism destinations that can serve as development resources. Underlining this paradox is a key political quandary.
