Abstract

The guiding principle of "Cultural emergency in conflict and disaster" is that culture is a basic need. International heritage specialists, relief workers and politicians discuss the importance of protecting cultural heritage that is threatened by war and calamity, as well as thesignificance of culture as a positive force in the process of recovering from catastrophes and the rebuilding of the communities affected. Reports about projects in conflict zones are alternated with contributions about international administrative and legal aspects, political dimensions and sociocultural perspectives. The result is both an indictment of the senseless destruction of cultural heritage and an unflinching argument for culture as a fundamental factor in the rebuilding and restoration of societies that have been afflicted by conflict and catastrophe.
