Culture is constructed negotiated managed and shared by various ideological political and
moral reasonings which manifest themselves tangibly and intangibly in public monuments
architecture memorial sites theaters museums orchestras and heritage associations. The
contributions to this volume explore the intersection of cultural heritage and nationality in
societies that are characterized by national multi-national and post-national concepts. They
question the roles that cultural heritage plays in its various contexts and the ways in which
ideology functions to produce it.
