Description: Human - Centered Built Environment Heritage Preservation addresses the question of how a human - centred conservation approach can and should change practice. For the most part there are few answers to this question because professionals in the heritage conservation field do not use social science research methodologies to manage cultural landscapes assess historical significance and inform the treatment of building and landscape fabric. With few exceptions only academic theorists have explored these topics while failing to offer specific usable guidance on how the social sciences can actually be used by heritage professionals. In exploring the nature of a human - centred heritage conservation practice we explicitly seek a middle ground between the academy and practice theory and application fabric and meanings conventional and civil experts and orthodox and heterodox ideas behind practice and research. We do this by positioning this book in a transdisciplinary space between these dichotomies as a way to give voice (and respect) to multiple perspectives without losing sight of our goal that heritage conservation practice should fundamentally benefit all people. We believe that this approach is essential for creating an emancipated built heritage conservation practice that must successfully engage very different ontological and epistemological perspectives.
