This book successfully represents the indispensable
interdisciplinarity of viewpoints by its authors combining legal
perspectives with architectural and anthropological approaches.
With the observation and analysis presented here, this book is the
first to demonstrate research-based governance solutions for
cultural heritage within the process of recovering from traumatic
events. Its opening statement is that universal international
standards are not effective enough for the specific situations of
disaster-struck places. A major objective of this monograph is to
allow its readers to go through a learning experience, from plural
cases where reconstruction of cultural heritage became central to
rebuilding a post-disaster society. This book introduces Japan as
the most disaster-prone country, with a long history of confronting
and overcoming the power of nature, resulting in its unique
solutions for cultural heritage resilience and sustainability. But
how do leadership and decision making become efficient in times of
recovery? Bearing in mind what may be lacking in Japanese
practices, this work also presents comparable governance models
from other countries which indicate alternative solutions. While a
traumatic event may occur within one night, the process of recovery
could last for decades. Such disasters also tend to recur. In order
that directly affected communities can sustain resilience
throughout the long recovery period, and that equally severe social
trauma will not be repeated, a continuous, well-maintained
governance response is required, whether grounded in local
knowledge or national policy frameworks. At the heart of this book
is the matter of the reconstruction process involving networks of
small and large communities. Each of those has a role that becomes
operational through linkages of contacts, the interchange of
knowledge and skills, and above all through the sharing of common
goals.
