Title: Common ground?
Description: " 'Heritage' has burgeoned over the past quarter of a c entury from a small élite preoccupation into a major popular crusade. Everything from historic markers to monuments, building sites, and landscapes bears the mark of the cult of heritage. This book attempts to make sense of and explain the rise of this new obsession with the past and examines its power for both good and evil."--Back cover.
