Recenzii

'Becoming Heritage is a carefully designed and brilliantly executed multi-site ethnography. A power blind celebration of cultural difference diverts attention away from the harsh realities of racial and class domination, and transforms collective cultural solidarity into competition to manage and control cultural assets, a competition that positions the most privileged, educated, assimilated, and normative members of the community to speak for the group and derive the greatest benefits from its recognition.' George Lipsitz, author of The Possessive Investment in Whiteness
'A rich ethnographic contribution to the emerging scholarship on heritage governance and bureaucracy. Becoming Heritage reveals how a fraught assembly of international agencies, state institutions, NGOs, tourist economies, and descendant communities combine to promote intangible heritage and defray charges of exclusion and dispossession in an Afro-Colombian setting. Maria Escallón reminds us of the lived realities of those in pursuit of recognition and who pays the ultimate price.' Lynn Meskell, author of A Future in Ruins: UNESCO, World Heritage, and the Dream of Peace
