    the historic environment, Vol. 6 No. 1, May 2015, 16–40 A Failure of Process? Comprehending the Issues Fostering Heritage Conflict in Dresden Elbe Valley and Liverpool — Maritime Mercantile City World Heritage Sites Bénédicte Gaillard Independent Scholar, Germany Dennis Rodwell Architect Planner, International Consultant, UK The acceleration of development pressures in recent decades has focused attention on the spectrum of major challenges facing the diverse stakehold- ers charged with the safeguarding and protection of World Heritage Sites. This paper compares two sites that have highlighted these challenges, both of which were inscribed on the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage List in 2004: Dresden Elbe Valley, Federal Republic of Germany, placed on the World Heritage List in Danger in 2006 and delisted in 2009; and Liverpool — Maritime Mercantile City, UK, placed on the World Heritage List in Danger in 2012 and the sub- ject of ongoing debate. The paper questions inconsistencies in the decision- making processes that may have triggered conflicts of interest in these two cases, positions the developing UNESCO concept of historic urban landscape as an enabler of integrative urban development, and draws lessons for the implementation of the World Heritage Convention. keywords conflicts, development pressures, historic urban landscape, World Heritage Convention, World Heritage Sites Introduction In validating the context, the opening paragraph of the preamble to the 1972 United Nations

  • ACCESSIBLE TOURISM in SAXONY. a Very Special Welcome
    ACCESSIBLE TOURISM IN SAXONY. A very special welcome MARTIN DULIG Deputy Prime Minister of Saxony and Saxon State Minister of Economic Affairs, Labour and Transport Why we have a special brochure for accessible tourism in Saxony? The answer is as simple as sophisticated: Because Saxony cares! Saxony can look back on more than a thousand years of living history. We are very proud of this heritage. For centuries, it was the most affluent region of Germany. Thus, you can find first-rate cultural attractions in Saxony as well as modern manufactories with long traditions – and beautiful and distinctive landscapes added for good measure. Saxons have it in their blood to not only extend a warm welcome to visitors from all over the world but also convince them that they have come to one of the most beautiful places on earth. Nobody is excluded from this. To the contrary: Germany’s number one destination for culture-loving tourists welcomes you with open arms. You matter, no matter why accessibility is an issue for you. As the German umbrella organisation for accessible tourism, Tourismus für Alle Deutschland (NatKo), has rightfully pointed out: For 10 percent of the population good accessibility is required, for 30 percent it is helpful and for 100 percent it makes life easier. Having grown up in a religious environment and being a proud father and grandfather, I have learned what responsibility means and I feel strongly about taking care of people with special needs. Saxony is seen as a leading player in the field of accessible tourism in Germany.
