自然遗产和文化遗产分离的批评现在已经确立。本文不再重复反对许多人现在认为是人为分离的论点,而是考虑了在自然遗产和文化遗产之间的界限被视为既定的情况下,在为遗产创造的扩大领域内工作的影响。我认为,拥抱这种解散使我们能够重新定位和重新概念化的遗产。在这里,遗产被理解为一系列的外交财产,这些财产出现在各种各样的人类和非人类行为者的对话中,这些行为者在现在从事照顾和照顾过去的做法。因此,遗产的功能是集合未来,因此可能与我们这个时代其他紧迫的社会、经济、政治和生态问题更有成效地联系在一起。事实上,我们不需要看得太远,就可以理解已经为这种连接本体建模的其他形式的遗产创造。理解这些替代遗产本体论的价值的基础是认识到本体论的多元性:不同形式的遗产实践制定了不同的现实,因此致力于组装不同的未来。从这一点出发,我勾勒出一个本体论的政治遗产,并为遗产的意识如何遗产可以面向组成“共同的世界”或“共同的未来”,同时保持敏感的方式,其中每个领域的遗产涉及到一个特定的存在模式。这里的关键是承认每一种这样的存在方式都产生了自己特定的世界和自己特定的未来。我这样做的背景下,考虑的影响,承认一定套纠缠的文化与自然,折叠在一起,我们用来称之为人类和非人类,这是我们当代的特点。为了说明这些观点,我介绍了一个新的合作研究计划,组装替代未来的遗产,它认为工作在一个扩大的领域的遗产实践和尝试重新配置遗产和其他模式的照顾未来之间的关系的影响框架。
Abstract The critique of the separation of natural and cultural heritage is now well established. Rather than repeat arguments against what many would now acknowledge as an artificial separation, this paper considers the implications of working within the expanded field that is created for heritage when the dissolution of the boundaries between natural and cultural heritage is taken as given. I argue that embracing this dissolution allows us to reorient and reconceptualize heritage. Heritage is understood here as a series of diplomatic properties that emerge in the dialogue of heterogeneous human and non-human actors who are engaged in practices of caring for and attending to the past in the present. As such, heritage functions toward assembling futures, and thus might be more productively connected with other pressing social, economic, political, and ecological issues of our time. Indeed, we need not look far to comprehend alternative forms of heritage-making that already model such connectivity ontologies. Fundamental to understanding the value of these alternative heritage ontologies is the recognition of ontological plurality: that different forms of heritage practices enact different realities and hence work to assemble different futures. Following on from this point, I sketch out an ontological politics of and for heritage—a sense of how heritage could be oriented toward composing “common worlds” or “common futures,” while maintaining a sensitivity to the ways in which each domain of heritage relates to a particular mode of existence. At stake here is the acknowledgment that each such mode of existence produces its own particular worlds and its own specific futures. I do this within the context of a consideration of the implications of the recognition of a certain set of entanglements of culture with nature, the folding together of what we used to term the human and the non-human, which characterizes our contemporary moment. To illustrate these points, I introduce the framework for a new collaborative research program, Assembling Alternative Futures for Heritage, which considers the implications of working across an expanded field of heritage practices and attempts to reconfigure the relationship between heritage and other modalities of caring for the future.
