Interventions on heritage: readings and reflections on protests from the focus of identities and public space - 2023.
80
Over the last decade, social protests around the world have triggered a discussion on the ways of expressing demands and claims in the public space. In particular, protest actions against monumental and architectural heritage (paintings, scratches, interventions, modifications, or overthrows) have generated debates of an ethical and political nature in the media, on socio-digital platforms, and in academic spaces.This phenomenon has awakened a growing interest in the social sciences and humanities, whose common objective is to analyze the disputes over the meaning of heritage and the connotations of these interventions. The objective of this article is to review the academic production around protest, interventions on historical heritage, public space, and identities. The implicit question in this paper is how these identity practices (highly symbolic) could be analyzed and interpreted to overcome the media, public, and academic reductionisms that they generate.
