14-16 November 2012
Université de Bourgogne - Dijon - France
The University of Burgundy's CIMEOS Laboratory, Georges Chevrier Centre and Maison des Sciences de l'Homme are organizing a two-day conference in November 2012 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the World Heritage Convention of UNESCO.
Inscription on the UNESCO World Heritage List has become very fashionable nowadays with States wanting to identify, preserve and emphasise the value of cultural andor natural sites, and public demand for inclusion is on the increase. Recent developments have raised questions about the emergence of the concept of "Outstanding Universal Value." When did this concept appear, what is its history, its possible difficulties and pitfalls?
Applying a critical and multidisciplinary perspective, the conference will use a range of approaches in order to understand the notion of universal heritage.
Submission of contributions and registration on the Website before 10 June, 2012.
Submissions will be selected by an International Scientific Committee (peer review).
