Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper explores the ways in which officially sanctioned colonial heritage is being moved, removed, reinvented, reinterpreted and reused by official heritage authorities, by social movements, agents and sectors of civil society, in two historically and culturally entangled cities: Rio de Janeiro and Lisbon. The cities are entangled in a process framed by their imperial – colonial relationship: because of the trafficking of enslaved Africans at their ports, for both cities being national capitals, and until the nineteenth century, the imperial nature of both cities. The inherent tensions in this process reveal the porosity of the authorized heritage discourse concerning local practices that transform meanings, and that act as openings for the reinvention of a heritage that transitions from colonial to decolonial.
期刊介绍：
Heritage & Society is a global, peer-reviewed journal that provides a forum for scholarly, professional, and community reflection on the cultural, political, and economic impacts of heritage on contemporary society. We seek to examine the current social roles of collective memory, historic preservation, cultural resource management, public interpretation, cultural preservation and revitalization, sites of conscience, diasporic heritage, education, legal/legislative developments, cultural heritage ethics, and central heritage concepts such as authenticity, significance, and value. The journal provides an engaging forum about tangible and intangible heritage for those who work with international and governmental organizations, academic institutions, private heritage consulting and CRM firms, and local, associated, and indigenous communities. With a special emphasis on social science approaches and an international perspective, the journal will facilitate lively, critical discussion and dissemination of practical data among heritage professionals, planners, policymakers, and community leaders.
