Based on theoretical reflection and extensive fieldwork, this volume ('Cultural Heritage Creation Processes. Karst Residents between Tradition and Modern Society') reveals the role of cultural heritage between tradition and innovation in the Karst region. The main purpose of the work is not only to present the significance of heritage in today’s globalized world, but also its main bearers: the creators and users of heritage living in the Karst region. The work sheds light on good and incorrect practices of representing the rural past, using heritage to develop tourism activities and presenting the local environment, and the importance of heritage for marking local identity. It also discusses the professional role in creating Karst heritage, as well as good and somewhat mistaken approaches by experts in considering local experiences, beliefs, and ideas.
