It can lead to misunderstandings among stakeholders, right?

Teacher

A helpful way to remember this is by associating complex terms with simpler explanations. For instance, think of 'heritagisation' as 'claiming history.' Can anyone summarize why we should pay attention to jargon?

Let's dive into the processes of heritagisation, re-heritagisation, and de-heritagisation. Can someone explain what heritagisation means?

Student 1
Student 1

It's when a building or site is recognized as heritage.

Teacher
Teacher

Correct! What about re-heritagisation? How is it different?

Student 4
Student 4

That’s when previously designated heritage is reaffirmed or re-evaluated, right?

Teacher
Teacher

Exactly! It reflects changing perceptions of significance. Now, de-heritagisation?

Student 3
Student 3

That's when something loses its status as heritage?

Teacher
Teacher

Right again! It's crucial to navigate these processes carefully. Can anyone give me an example of each?

Student 2
Student 2

An example of heritagisation would be recognizing a building as a historical site. Re-heritagisation could be affirming its importance after new findings, while de-heritagisation might occur if it’s deemed too costly to preserve.

Teacher
Teacher

Great examples! Just remember, the flow from one process to another highlights the importance of ongoing dialogue among stakeholders. Let's summarize: heritagisation is the recognition of heritage, re-heritagisation reaffirms that recognition, and de-heritagisation indicates the loss of that status.

And then in 1984 what you can see here is like it is all the red dots which are actually talking about the designated areas you know they are all the listed buildings around, and there is a conservation plan which has been adopted in 1984. And here the heritagisation has actually referred to various aspects; one is the addition of new heritage because when they came to know that yes the Kiruna is going to move further. And then there is a relocation aspect which has been planned out for these heritage buildings.

Detailed Explanation

The heritagisation process started with a conservation plan adopted in 1984, which identified important buildings in Kiruna. As the town planned to relocate, new aspects of heritage were added to the conversation, including the relocation of these buildings.

Examples & Analogies

Think of heritagisation like deciding which family heirlooms to take when moving to a new house. Just as some items may hold more sentimental value than others, certain buildings in Kiruna are recognized for their historical significance and need to be preserved.

And also the reaffirmation of already designated heritage so how they are giving a reaffirmation as a special importance on it again so that they emphasize that this is the most important building you need to keep that on the move as well. Re-interpretation of already designated heritage and the rejection of previously designated heritage this is where the whole process went on.

Detailed Explanation

This chunk discusses how certain buildings' heritage status was reaffirmed, meaning they were recognized again as significant. The process involved reinterpreting old heritage and sometimes deciding to reject heritage claims on others, indicating a dynamic conversation around what constitutes heritage.

Examples & Analogies

It's like a family deciding to keep certain traditions alive while letting go of others. Just as some traditions might be modified to fit modern life, the buildings in Kiruna need to be re-evaluated in the context of relocation.

Let us see how it went, and there have been a lot of the controversial aspects of how this particular culture has going to be taken into account in the move process so that is where even the general director of the national heritage board also wrote in a debate article that you know the battle is about which history we will be able to tell about Kiruna in the future and thereby about the modern Sweden of the 20th century right.

Detailed Explanation

There are ongoing debates about which historical narratives will be upheld as Kiruna relocates. The general director of the national heritage board suggests that preserving culture through these histories is vital for defining modern Sweden.

Examples & Analogies

And coming to the Heritagisation process I would like to emphasize on 3 important aspects one is a heritagisation, re-heritagisation and de-heritagisation. So one is the heritagisation process I just explained you that in 1984 the whole listed the conservation plan has been developed. And when Kiruna is on move when people know that these buildings are going to move to the new location as well and that is where they started reaffirming these the significance of these heritage properties even the old miner have stayed here the first miner have stayed here or his cottage or a railway track, railway coach you know like that there are various aspects which come into the picture and then they started re-heritagisation that is where Jennie calls it as re-heritagisation.

Detailed Explanation

This chunk outlines three key processes surrounding the concept of heritagisation: heritagisation (the initial identification and preservation of heritage), re-heritagisation (the reevaluation and affirmation of heritage properties), and de-heritagisation (deciding what heritage may no longer be relevant).

Examples & Analogies

Think of heritagisation as maintaining a garden. Initially, you plant seeds (heritagisation), but as time passes, you might need to tend to it, uproot weeds (de-heritagisation), and sometimes even plant new flowers or trees that represent your evolving taste (re-heritagisation).
