The history of development has paid only little attention to
cultural projects. This book looks at the development politics that
shaped the UNESCO World Heritage programme, with a case study of
Ethiopian World Heritage sites from the 1960s to the 1980s. In a
large-scale conservation and tourism planning project, selected
sites were set up and promoted as images of the Ethiopian nation.
This story serves to illustrate UNESCO's role in constructing a
"useful past" in many African countries engaged in the process of
nation-building. UNESCO experts and Ethiopian elites had a shared
interest in producing a portfolio of antiquities and national parks
to underwrite Ethiopia's imperial claims to regional hegemony with
ancient history. The key findings of this book highlight a
continuity in Ethiopian history, despite the political ruptures
caused by the 1974 revolution and UNESCO's transformation from
knowledge producer to actual provider of development policies. The
particular focus on the bureaucratic and political practices of
heritage, bridges a gap between cultural heritage studies and the
history of international organisations. The result is a first study
of the global discourse on heritage as it emerged in the 1960s
development decade.
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly
growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by
advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve
the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own:
digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works
in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these
high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts
are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries,
undergraduate students, and independent scholars.The Age of
Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical
understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking.
Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel
Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and
moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade.
The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and
Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a
debate that continues in the twenty-first century.++++The below
