Where from and where to? Perspectives and premises for understanding cultural routes

Los itinerarios culturales son un concepto relativamente nuevo en el campo del patrimonio cultural, a pesar de que estas rutas son centenarias y han contribuido poderosamente a la creación de la personalidad de territorios y países. Este sistema de vías que fueron creados con la intención de controlar recursos o facilitar los movimientos de peregrinos terminaron forjando culturas y relacionando territorios alejados unos de otros pero asimilados por el intercambio de bienes materiales, ideas, convicciones y saberes. Sin embargo, y pese a la importancia que se deriva de las líneas anteriores, el conocimiento y reconocimiento de los itinerarios son aún escasos y, lo que es más grave, el deterioro y pérdida de recursos culturales a ellos ligados, bien por banalización turística o bien por desaparición directa, son procesos que deben llevar a la preocupación de todos los interesados en el patrimonio cultural.The concept of cultural routes is relatively new in the field of cultural heritage, even though these routes may be centuries old and have greatly contributed to the personality of many territories and countries. These road systems that were created with the intention of controlling resources or easing the way for journeying pilgrims ended up forging cultures and bringing together lands which were far apart in distance but similar in the sense that they exchanged goods, ideas, convictions and knowledge. However, despite the importance of what has just been stated, there is still little knowledge or acknowledgement of these routes. Even more importantly, the deterioration and loss of the cultural resources associated with them, either through their trivialisation by tourism or their direct disappearance, are processes that should arouse the concern of everyone interested in cultural heritage

El lugar de las cosas: reflexiones sobre la libertad de intervención en las ciudades históricas

The phrase transitional justice has had an amazingly successful career at an early age. Popularized as an academic concept in the early 1990s in the aftermath of apartheid\u27s collapse in South Africa, the phrase quickly gained traction in a variety of global contexts, including Rwanda, Yugoslavia, Cambodia, and Sierra Leone. A sizeable literature has been generated around it, so much so that one might even call it a sub-discipline with inter-disciplinary qualities. Nonetheless, the concept remains an enigma. It defines the contours of an entire field of intellectual inquiry, yet at the same time it hides more than it illuminates. No one is exactly sure what it means. One reason might be its combination of two very different kinds of words in a single phrase. Justice is perhaps the greatest of moral values, with a history that extends back to the moment man started criticizing the conduct of his fellow man. It is meant to evoke a universal, normative goal. Transitional, on the other hand, defines a particular situation, an exceptional and limited moment that stands in contrast to the universal goal. So the second term limits and qualifies the first in some important way, but how is totally unclear. Is transitional justice some other kind of justice, fundamentally different from justice during non-transitional moments? Or is it simply ordinary justice, a familiar end-state that remains elusive because a society has been ripped apart by genocide or some other ethnic conflict? If it is the latter, the field is about how to achieve, in a very pragmatic way, the usual goals of justice in difficult times. If it is the former, the field fundamentally re-conceives our understanding of justice in the face of radical social violence. One is largely an exercise in social science, the other an exercise in moral philosophy. The current field of transitional justice straddles this distinction, and does so, I shall argue, in a somewhat uncomfortable way. Although the concept now dominates international affairs as an umbrella under which these problems are investigated, it remains fundamentally misunderstood. Specifically, the term transitional justice betrays a deep tension between two approaches to justice that goes to the heart of the burgeoning program of international criminal justice

El reconocimiento patrimonial de los cementerios en las grandes ciudades andaluzas

Los cementerios son uno de los recursos patrimoniales más complejos y, a la vez, desconocidos. Durante los últimos decenios se ha avanzado en el reconocimiento de estos lugares hasta convertirlos en recursos turístico-culturales de primer orden. Los cementerios de las grandes ciudades andaluzas ofrecen un buen ejemplo de estos argumentos, aunque la situación varía considerablemente de unas ciudades a otras. Con este trabajo se propone una primera selección interrelacionada de los principales valores asignados a estos lugares: los relacionados con los registros lapidarios; los histórico-artísticos y literarios; los ligados a la memoria histórica; y los ritual-simbólicos y legendarios.Le reconnaissance patrimonial des cimetières à les grandes villes an-dalouses.- Les cimetières sont une des ressources patrimoniales plus complexes et, en même temps, inconnues. Durant les dernières décen-nies, il y a eu des progrès dans la reconnaissance de ces sites jusqu ́à devenir une ressource touristique-culturelle de premier ordre. Les cimetières des villes andalouses offrent un bon exemple de ces arguments, bien que la situation varie considérablement entre elles. Ce travail propose une première sélection des principales valeurs attribuées à ces endroits: celles qui sont liées aux pierres tombales; les historique-ar- tistiques et littéraires; la “memoria histórica”; et les rituel-symboliques et légendaires.Heritage recognition on cemeteries in the great Andalusian cities. Cemeteries are one of the most complex heritage resources and, at the same time, unknown. During the last decades there has been progress in the recognition of these sites till become fundamental tourist and cultural resources. Cemeteries of the Andalusian cities offer good examples of these arguments, although the situation varies considerably from cities to others. This work proposes a first selection of the main values assigned to these places: those related to lapidary records; those historic-artistic and literary ones; those linked to the “memoria histórica”; and the ritual-symbolic and legendary ones
