  • Conservation in China Issue, Spring 2016
    SPRING 2016 CONSERVATION IN CHINA A Note from the Director For over twenty-five years, it has been the Getty Conservation Institute’s great privilege to work with colleagues in China engaged in the conservation of cultural heritage. During this quarter century and more of professional engagement, China has undergone tremendous changes in its social, economic, and cultural life—changes that have included significant advance- ments in the conservation field. In this period of transformation, many Chinese cultural heritage institutions and organizations have striven to establish clear priorities and to engage in significant projects designed to further conservation and management of their nation’s extraordinary cultural resources. We at the GCI have admiration and respect for both the progress and the vision represented in these efforts and are grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the preservation of cultural heritage in China. The contents of this edition of Conservation Perspectives are a reflection of our activities in China and of the evolution of policies and methods in the work of Chinese conservation professionals and organizations. The feature article offers Photo: Anna Flavin, GCI a concise view of GCI involvement in several long-term conservation projects in China. Authored by Neville Agnew, Martha Demas, and Lorinda Wong— members of the Institute’s China team—the article describes Institute work at sites across the country, including the Imperial Mountain Resort at Chengde, the Yungang Grottoes, and, most extensively, the Mogao Grottoes. Integrated with much of this work has been our participation in the development of the China Principles, a set of national guide- lines for cultural heritage conservation and management that respect and reflect Chinese traditions and approaches to conservation.

  • Virtual Water Trade in the Service Sector: China's Inbound Tourism As
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Article Virtual Water Trade in the Service Sector: China’s Inbound Tourism as a Case Study Yu Zhang 1,2 , Jin-he Zhang 2,3,* and Qing Tian 1 1 School of Geography and Tourism, Qufu Normal University, Rizhao 276826, China; [email protected] (Y.Z.); [email protected] (Q.T.) 2 Huangshan Park Ecosystem Observation and Research Station, Ministry of Education, Huangshan 245800, China 3 School of Geography and Ocean Science, Nanjing University, Nanjing 210023, China * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Research on virtual water and the water footprint is mainly focused on agriculture and industry, and less so on the service sector. The trade in products generates virtual water flow, as does the flow of people. The flow of international tourists will inevitably lead to the transfer and exchange of water resources embedded in the virtual form. This study takes China’s inbound tourism flow as the research object, from the perspective of the water footprint, in order to explore virtual water “exports” to the world. Based on kernel density estimation and ArcGIS spatial analysis, spatial- temporal evolution and structural difference were investigated. Virtual water “exports” showed an increasing trend. The kernel density estimation curves basically exhibited a “single peak” feature which indicated that virtual water “exports” from tourism were not significantly polarized in China. In terms of spatial evolution, this varied greatly at the provincial and regional level and Guangdong was always in the high value area. The south displayed greater values than the north, but this Citation: Zhang, Y.; Zhang, J.-h.; difference in provinces narrowed over the years.

  • Evolving and Contested Cultural Heritage in China: the Rural Heritagescape Marina Svensson Lund University
    Evolving and contested cultural heritage in China: the rural heritagescape Marina Svensson Lund University Introduction Chinese cultural heritage is complex, contested and evolving. There exist different understandings of the content and value of cultural heritage, and a diverse range of manifestations in terms of images, practices and experiences. Today many different actors are involved in debating, mediating, consuming and managing cul- tural heritage, in contrast with the situation in the past. Chinese How to cite this book chapter: Svensson, M 2016 Evolving and contested cultural heritage in China: the rural heritagescape. In: Matsuda, A and Mengoni, L E (eds.) Reconsidering Cultural Heritage in East Asia, Pp. 31–46. London: Ubiquity Press. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5334/baz.c. License: CC-BY 4.0 32 Reconsidering Cultural Heritage in East Asia cultural heritage policy takes place in a historically very unique context, namely an authoritarian/Communist market economy with global aspirations. Negotiations and conflicts over the mean- ing and management of cultural heritage thus occur in the interface of an authoritarian state, market forces and globalisation. Cultural heritage has become important to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in its attempt to foster a cultural and national identity in a society where communism is, if not dead, clearly no longer the powerful cohesive force it used to be. Cultural heritage is therefore central for China domestically in its propaganda and educational work, while at the same time it is used to project China’s rising international profile and is a pillar of its soft power strategy. Cul- tural heritage is also becoming an important economic asset for local governments and tourism related industries, something that opens up potential for new contestations.
