Abstract
This chapter examines a sequential mixed-method approach that may assist recovery planners and heritage professionals in incorporating more equitable participatory approaches. Congress enacted Section 106 as part of the National Historic Preservation Act in 1966. Unlike placation, “partnership” offers a greater opportunity for citizens to obtain more decision-making capability. Participatory methods emerged in the 1960s,’70s, and ‘80s as an alternative to top-down planning and international development approaches It suggests two participatory methods—participatory rural appraisal and advocacy planning—can be used, in tandem, to promote partnership in the consultation process. Looking to the future of historic preservation practice, it is essential that preservation regulatory frameworks, particularly Section 106, must transition from placation to partnership. Most importantly, successful transition to partnership in Section 106 will depend upon heritage professionals' recognition of the National Register criteria-which underpin the entire Section 106 process-as an exclusionary device.
