ABSTRACT The twenty-first century has witnessed significant changes in heritage management practice and scholarship. This paper suggests that many of these innovations and changes have emerged as a consequence of protest or provocation from groups outside the established heritage profession. While the centre and the periphery are relative terms, the periphery in heritage can be regarded as geographic and spatial but also political, social and cultural. The periphery might therefore include regional or minority communities, indigenous peoples, regional and remote areas or even fields of scholarship. The periphery is thus a socio-political space that reflects power inequalities and differential rights from those at the centre. Where the periphery is able to critique the centre, the relationship between the two is renegotiated. This paper suggests that in moving between the centre and the periphery, innovations in heritage emerge. While heritage regimes have undergone significant reformation, this paper suggests that it is the periphery that has advocated, and acted as the catalyst, for change.

争夺中心

摘要 21 世纪见证了遗产管理实践和学术的重大变化。本文表明，这些创新和变化中有许多是由于既定遗产专业之外的团体的抗议或挑衅而出现的。虽然中心和边缘是相对的术语，但遗产的边缘可以被视为地理和空间，也可以被视为政治、社会和文化。因此，外围可能包括区域或少数民族社区、土著人民、区域和偏远地区，甚至学术领域。因此，外围是一个社会政治空间，反映了与中心的权力不平等和不同权利。在外围能够批评中心的地方，两者之间的关系需要重新协商。本文认为，在中心和边缘之间的移动中，遗产创新应运而生。虽然遗产制度经历了重大改革，但本文认为是外围倡导并充当了变革的催化剂。
