This volume reports on the lectures and fruitful debates that took place during the January 2014 conference on community participation in valuing and managing monuments and sites. The 11 papers
demonstrate how to take intangible values into account when restoring modest local heritage buildings, how community participation can contribute to social cohesion and the preservation of the
built environment, and how community involvement can play a role in post-disaster cultural regeneration after a major earthquake. Distributed in the US by ISBS. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc.,
