Description

Product Description This book explores the opportunities and challenges associated with the legal protection of World Heritage sites in the Pacific Islands. It argues that the small Pacific representation on the World Heritage List is in part due to a lack of strong legal frameworks for heritage conservation, putting such sites under threat. Providing a comprehensive analysis of the nomination, listing and protection of the Solomon Island World Heritage Site, it examines the implementation of the World Heritage Convention in the Pacific context. It explores how the international community’s broadening interpretation of the notion of ‘outstanding universal value’ has increased the potential for Pacific heritage to be classified as ‘World Heritage’. This book also analyses the protection regime established by the Convention, and the World Heritage Committee’s approach to heritage conservation, identifying challenges associated with the protection of Pacific Island heritage. Review “This work contributes to the discourse of global conservation strategies and as informs the leadership in international conservation programs as they strive to expand their reach in different world regions. It will serve well in global conservation policies and Pacific studies classes at the postgraduate level. Summing Up: Recommended. Advanced undergraduates through faculty and professionals.” (Y.-F. Leung, Choice, Vol. 56 (7), March, 2019) From the Back Cover This book explores the opportunities and challenges associated with the legal protection of World Heritage sites in the Pacific Islands.
