Description

Explore the complex history of urban conservation in one of the world's most unique architectural landscapes. Building a World Heritage City: Sanaa, Yemen (Heritage, Culture and Identity) examines the significant cultural heritage initiatives that began in the 1980s under UNESCO. This work provides a deep look into how local agencies and actors lead conservation efforts today. Unlike many regions where modernization and conservation are separate eras, Yemen presents a unique case where these two processes happen at the same time. This book looks at the paradox created when traditional construction practices are maintained alongside modern developments. It is an essential read for those interested in how identity and heritage are preserved within a changing urban environment. Recognized for its academic quality, this title received the 2018 Society of Architectural Historians Spiro Kostof Book Award, Honorable Mention. It serves as a vital resource for students, historians, and professionals interested in Middle Eastern architecture and the management of world heritage sites.
