Identifikasi Cagar Budaya di Kota Depok sebagai Upaya dalam Membangun Kesadaran Sejarah Masyarakat

Within the scope of urban history there are 4 periods, namely prehistoric, traditional, colonial, and modern. One of the cities that has historical heritage, either in the form of buildings or building structures is Depok City. Depok during the colonial period was an area of ​​Gementee Bestuur which was given the freedom to manage its own territory. Therefore, in Depok City there are many relics of the colonial period identified as cultural heritage, but not all Depok people know that Depok has a long history of cultural heritage in its area. Meanwhile, the objectives of this study are (1) to identify the cultural heritage in Depok City; and (2) to analyze efforts to build public historical awareness through the identification of cultural heritage in Depok City. The research method used in this research is descriptive qualitative. The results of this study found that there are 21 cultural heritages in Depok City. To raise awareness of history in the Depok community through the identification of cultural heritage, it can be done by (1) incorporating the introduction of the cultural heritage of the City of Depok into the local content; (2) conduct socialization on various cultural heritages in Depok City; (3) make routine 'Depok Heritage Festival' activities; and (4) inserting a list of identified cultural heritages into the depok.go.id website.

Examining the Administrative Unworkability of Final Agency Action Doctrine as Applied to the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act

The application of the Administrative Procedure Act (“APA”) to the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (“NAGPRA”) creates unique practical and doctrinal results. When considering the application of the current law concerning judicial review of final agency action under the APA to NAGPRA, it is evident that the law is simultaneously arbitrary and unclear. In the Ninth Circuit’s holding in Navajo Nation v. U.S. Department of the Interior, the Court applied final agency action doctrine in a manner that was legally correct but administratively unworkable. The Court’s opinion contravenes both the reasoning behind the APA final agency action doctrine and the purposes of both NAGPRA and the APA. The holding further allows for a finding of a final agency action despite the fact that the application of NAGPRA is the beginning of a process that will result in its own final agency action – the determination of which tribe owns the remains and artifacts. Such a result ignores sensitive issues of cultural patrimony (the identification of cultural heritage as to specific sets of remains or sacred object) associated with the NAGPRA inventory process, which requires that Native American remains and sacred objects found on federal land be inventoried by the federal agency that manages that land. The unworkability and legal incoherence of the Ninth Circuit’s decision in Navajo Nation stems from an underlying final agency action doctrine developed to protect property rights that fails to properly consider the unique context of cultural heritage rights implicated by statutes such as NAGPRA. These rights involve the recognition that human remains and ceremonial objects belong to a specific culture. The application of final agency action doctrine invites legal claims before anyone can adequately determine what culture the remains and artifacts belong to. Because of this, the courts or Congress must develop an alternative set of rules to be used when dealing with a final agency action that implicates the cultural heritage rights associated with ancient remains and sacred objects. Such an action would account for the unique nature of the rights in question. Doing so would make administrative agencies better equipped to provide inclusive protections to minority cultures in the performance of their duties.

Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and chemometrics for the discrimination of paper relic types.

The paper relic identification is a pending issue to be resolved in the field of cultural heritage. As we all known, heritage paper has significant importance in archaeological research. Nowadays, there are a variety of research methodologies focuses on the analysis of inks for dating documents. While the paper analysis attained little attention. This work is to explore the non-destructive application of ATR-FTIR technique in discrimination of paper relics. 15 types of paper spectra were collected by ATR-FTIR, which wavenumber range were range from 4000 to 650 cm-1. And the moving average smoothing and normalization was used for pretreatment analysis. Five different classification algorithms, principal component analysis-linear discriminant analysis (PCA-LDA), partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), soft independent modeling of class analogy (SIMCA), least squares-support vector machine (LS-SVM), partial least squares-linear discriminant analysis (PLS-LDA) were selected to classify the types of paper. PLS-LDA and LS-SVM are effective techniques with 100% classification accuracy. PCA-LDA, PLS-DA and SIMCA give accuracy of 98.67%, 97.33% and 95.56%, respectively. The present experiment suggested that ATR-FTIR combining with chemometrics will be highly useful in paper identification of cultural heritage.

The Integration Of Cultural Resources Management In Disaster Management At Special Region Province Of Yogyakarta

The Republic of Indonesia Law number 24 year 2007 on disaster emphasizes that the protection of national assets is in line with Law No. 11 year 2010 on the cultural heritage. Yogyakarta Province has 12 disaster hazards and has five complete archaeological cultural layers in Indonesia. In the event of a disaster, potential damage to the cultural heritage is exposed. The archaeological cultural layer consists of prehistoric, classical, Islamic and colonial. The lack of research related to cultural heritage in the province resulting in increasing vulnerability of cultural heritage and society. Using qualitative method with in-depth interview, the aim of this study is to analyse the management of cultural heritage from the perspective of disaster management. Archaeological cultural layers that embedded into the realm of cultural heritage is defined as a national asset that should be protected. The result shows that the management of cultural resources in the province is not yet integrated with disaster management. However, the results of the archaeological identification of cultural heritage in each cultural layer in Yogyakarta showed the development of community adaptation to the disaster. Utilization of cultural heritage as an element of the panca gatra has been impartial that affected the regional resilience and security in facing the disaster. Both of these problems can be overcome by integrating the cultural resources management and disaster management, the establishment of an emergency response team on cultural preservation, and disaster risk analysis on cultural heritage that annexed by BPBD and Cultural Office of Yogyakarta Province.

Gestión y valoración del patrimonio histórico inmueble en el Centro Histórico del Callao

Un centro histórico identifica culturalmente a su comunidad. Su conservación no puede aislarse de su contexto físico y social, ni puede separarse de las actividades de desarrollo de la ciudad, de manera que son importantes las acciones colaborativas y la participación de todos los actores sociales involucrados. Su complejidad requiere que se empleen enfoques adecuados de gestión. En el Centro Histórico del Callao (Perú), donde el patrimonio inmueble se encuentra en situación precaria, abandonado o derruido, existe una problemática en torno a su conservación. Por esta razón, en el presente artículo se estudia la relación entre su estado de conservación en 2015, y los instrumentos de gestión y de valoración del patrimonio. El análisis revela la carencia de procesos de reconocimiento y de protección del patrimonio inmueble que complementen los dispositivos legales existentes; asimismo, evidencia la falta de coordinación y colaboración entre los organismos públicos encargados de resguardarlo.

The Role of Photography in the Protection, Identification, and Recovery of Cultural Heritage

AbstractThis article seeks to contribute to the study surrounding documentation and the illicit trade in cultural property by examining the uses of photography by the international community. Popular and academic literature, news reports, and online databases reveal three primary and interconnected relationships that exist between photography and the trade of cultural heritage. This article presents photography as, first, an aid for the protection and identification of cultural heritage and, second, as a form of evidence to support an ownership claim by a country calling for repatriation.

Forbearance coping, identification with heritage culture, acculturative stress, and psychological distress among Chinese international students.

Based on Berry's (1997) theoretical framework for acculturation, our goal in this study was to examine whether the use of a culturally relevant coping strategy (i.e., forbearance coping, a predictor) would be associated with a lower level of psychological distress (a psychological outcome), for whom (i.e., those with weaker vs. stronger identification with heritage culture, a moderator), and under what situations (i.e., lower vs. higher acculturative stress, a moderator). A total of 188 Chinese international students completed an online survey. Results from a hierarchical regression indicated a significant 3-way interaction of forbearance coping, identification with heritage culture, and acculturative stress on psychological distress. For those with a weaker identification with their heritage culture, when acculturative stress was higher, the use of forbearance coping was positively associated with psychological distress. However, this was not the case when acculturative stress was lower. In other words, the use of forbearance coping was not significantly associated with psychological distress when acculturative stress was lower. Moreover, for those with a stronger cultural heritage identification, the use of forbearance coping was not significantly associated with psychological distress regardless of whether acculturative stress was high or low. Future research and implications are discussed.
