The research question of the ongoing research project was: How to bridge conflicting objectives of monument protection, urban development, creative industries, and contemporary architecture. Our study could successfully clarify this point. In this context, discourse analysis was adapted as a scientific tool and could be applied tor the analysis of European case studies. Our research findings underline the role of both conflicting and bridging values, we also found particular adaptations of discourses (first and second year of the project).We now apply for means for a continuing project aiming at the translation of the empirical findings into the theory related to monument protection (third year of the research project). This implies: to translate the findings with regard to German-speaking theory approaches (part 1); to translate the findings with regard to the Anglo-Saxon theory discussion on heritage, monument protection and conservation (part 2); in addition, the preliminary description of the monument-protection discourse will be revised (with regard to discourses as epistemic nets) in order to provide a general tool for planning and research (part 3).
