Event

Public Space, Identity, and Public Production (Heritage Conservation in Asia Roundtable Series)

featuring Kecia Fong, Ken Lum, Guobin Yang, and Fariha Khan.

Heritage conservation is premised on the idea of a public good and is often enacted in the public realm. It thus presumes a sense of shared identity and communal space in which a collective is invested. In this roundtable, we investigate the conditions under which communities in Asia and abroad cohere to claim public space as an expression of their collective identity and how heritage and its conservation are leveraged as a medium for public production. Join us to explore the theme of public space, identity, and heritage conservation in Asia from diverse scholarly and practitioner perspectives.
