Cultural Heritage Site Significance, Management and Interpretation in China and Australia: A Comparative Analysis in a Cross-Cultural Framework

中国和澳大利亚的文化遗产意义、管理和阐释：跨文化框架下的比较分析。1994年的奈良文件声称，东亚人对“文化遗产”的看法与西方人不同，保护实践应该反映它所处的文化。鉴于澳大利亚与中国的旅游联系日益密切，中国在亚太地区的重要性日益增加，现在是反思中国对文化遗产的理解的时候了。相反，中国相对较新的文化遗产产业可以借鉴澳大利亚的做法。该项目旨在通过研究遗址的重要性、管理和解释等关键问题，增进相互了解。该研究将填补文献空白，并为进一步的跨文化遗产分析提供一个模型。

Cultural Heritage Site Significance, Management and Interpretation in China and Australia: A Comparative Analysis in a Cross-Cultural Framework. The Nara Document 1994 asserts that East Asians see 'cultural heritage' differently from Westerners and that conservation practice should reflect the culture in which it takes place. Given Australia's growing tourism links with China, and China's growing importance in the Asia-Pacific, it is timely to reflect on the Chinese understanding of cultural heritage. Conversely China's relatively new cultural heritage industry can learn from Australian practice. This project aims at better mutual understanding by researching key issues of site significance, management and interpretation. The research will fill a gap in the literature and provide a model for further cross-cultural heritage analysis.
