Cultural heritage is a complex and elusive concept, constantly
evolving through time, and combining cultural, aesthetic, symbolic,
spiritual, historical and economic values. The Handbook on the
Economics of Cultural Heritage outlines the contribution of
economics to the design and analysis of cultural heritage policies
and to addressing issues related to the conservation, management
and enhancement of heritage.The Handbook takes a multidisciplinary
approach, using cultural economics as a theoretical framework to
illustrate how crucial and stimulating cross-disciplinary dialogue
actually is. Contributors scrutinize the co-existence of cultural
and economic values as well as the new challenges that arise from
changes brought about by technology, and relationships between the
different actors engaged in the production, distribution and
consumption of heritage services. The roles of public, private and
non-profit organizations are also explored. Case studies underpin
the discussion, demonstrating the clear and vital link between
theory and practice. This highly unique Handbook will prove a
fascinating and informative read for academics, researchers,
students and policymakers with an interest in cultural economics.
