This edited volume offers an in-depth study of heritage and warfare
from the perspective of defence studies. The book focuses on how,
in different contexts, heritage can be a catalyst and target of
conflict, an obstacle to stabilisation, and a driver of
peace-building. It documents the changing role of heritage - in
terms of both exploitation and protection - in various military
capabilities, theatres, and operations. With particular concern for
the areas of subthreshold and hybrid warfare, stabilisation,
cultural relationships, human security, and disaster response, the
volume reviews the historical relationship between heritage and
armed conflict, including the roles of embedded archaeologists,
safeguarding of ethics, and dislodgement and destruction of
material culture. Various chapters in the book also demonstrate the
value of understanding how state and non-state actors exploit
cultural heritage across different defence postures and within both
subthreshold and proxy warfare in order to achieve military,
political, economic, and diplomatic advantages. This book will be
of interest to students of defence studies, heritage studies,
anthropology and security studies in general, as well as military
practitioners.
