Tiivistelmä

This introduction to the themed section Using our Past, Defining our Futures – Debating Heritage and Culture in Europe summarises the three articles and outlines their approach to heritage. The authors all share a vision of heritage as a future-oriented tool for change. Heritage is interpreted as a cultural process that seeks to link past and present, but also aims to influence the future. As our societies evolve over time, the changes in our social values force us to re-evaluate and re-interpret our heritages – to re-determine the boundaries between what we cherish, what we are proud of, and what we regret. From this perspective heritage is not only open to change, but also a process that requires revision. Instead of the preservationist approach that sees heritage as something needing protection, the authors approach it as potent agent for social and political change. Empirically the articles contribute to the active debates on the idea of European culture and heritage by focusing on the relationship between the past and the meanings attached to it in contemporary societies. The authors especially address the practices of meaning-making that are embedded in the ways different aspects of our past are discussed, narrated, and reinterpreted.
