HERITAGE STUDIES IN THE MUSLIM WORLD THE MAKI...

This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. Offering key insights into critical debates
on the construction  management and destruction of heritage in Muslim contexts  this volume
considers how Islamic heritages are constructed through texts and practices which award
heritage value. It examines how the monolithic representation of Islamic heritage (as a
singular construct) can be enriched by the true diversity of Islamic heritages and how
endangerment and vulnerability in this type of heritage construct can be re-conceptualized.
Assessing these questions through an interdisciplinary lens including heritage studies 
anthropology  history  conservation  religious studies and archaeology  this pivot covers
global and local examples including heritage case studies from Indonesia  Egypt  Saudi Arabia 
Iran  Jordan  and Pakistan.
