Classical theories of conservation are well known in the heritage community, but in the last two decades thinking has shifted,
and classical theory has faced increasing criticism. “Contemporary Theory of Conservation” brings together current ideas in
conservation theory, presenting a structured, coherent analysis of the subject for the first time. This engaging and readable
text is split into 3 parts. The first, Fundamentals of conservation, addresses the identity of conservation itself, and problems
arising when classical conservation theories are applied. The second part, Questioning classical theories, delves deeper into the
criticism of classical ideas such as reversibility. This leads on to the creation of new paradigms such as sustainability, which
are covered in the final part of the book, Conservation ethics.
