Natalie Portman in an award-winning performance. Nina (Portman) is
a dancer in a New York City ballet company. Still living with her

Essays dealing with the question of how the theory and practice of
archaeology should engage with the recent past. Heritage, memory,
community archaeology and the politics of the past form the main
strands running through the papers in this volume.The authors
tackle these subjects from a range of different philosophical
perspectives, with manydrawing on the experience of recent
community, commercial and other projects. Throughout, there is a
strong emphasis on both the philosophy of engagement and with its
enactment in specific contexts; the essays deal with an interest in
the meaning, value and contested nature of the recent past and in
the theory and practice of archaeological engagements with that
past. Chris Dalglish is a lecturer in archaeology at the University
of Glasgow. Contributors: Julia Beaumont, David Bowsher, Terry
