The Heritage, Creativity and Innovation Nexus: Critical Approaches and Interdisciplinary Perspectives explores the central role that innovation and creativity play in contemporary heritage practices.

Drawing on a rich body of in-depth case-studies from around the world, the editors and authors interrogate the shifting connections between heritage, creativity and innovation. Presenting cutting-edge theoretical discussions written by leading experts, the volume explores the practices and significance of the creativity, innovation and heritage nexus from a critical, interdisciplinary perspective. It interrogates key dimensions of the nexus, such as the creative economy and new digital technologies, as well as creative uses in politics, identity construction and the framing of history. It also explores a set of connected and complementary concepts and forms of creative agency that are often taken for granted. Cross-cutting features of the book involve critical conversations about power, identity and socio-historical context. Geographically, the book covers cases from Asia, Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

The Heritage, Creativity and Innovation Nexus: Critical Approaches and Interdisciplinary Perspectives is essential reading for academics and students of Heritage Studies, Museum Studies, History, Anthropology, Sociology, Urban Studies, Political Science, Archaeology, Art History and Architecture. It will also be of interest to professional practitioners working in heritage and the creative industries.
