Abstract
This chapter introduces the reader to key heritage conservation doctrinal texts; notes which organisations, nations, or committees created such documents; and considers how heritage conservation doctrine has influenced, and been influenced by, cultural landscape practice. The value statements – the basis of doctrinal text – after much discussion are, generally, agreed upon by members of the committee drafting the statements. In China, the protection of cultural landscapes depends on the combination of special regulations. Japan’s foundational cultural heritage legislation was created in 1950. However, since 2004, based on local government recommendations, cultural landscapes of particular importance can be designated by the national government as Important Cultural Landscapes. Working together, a combination of federal, regional, and local public, academic, and private parties led by the US National Park Service – the federal agency responsible for heritage conservation guidance – have created a strong set of guidance which advocates can use to conserve cultural landscapes.
