Archaeology, Heritage, and Civic Engagement

Archaeology, Heritage, and Civic Engagement

The definition of â€œpublic archaeologyâ€ has expanded in recent years to include archaeologistsâ€™ collaborations with and within communities and activities in support of education, civic renewal, peacebuilding, and social justice. Barbara Little and Paul Shackel, long-term leaders in the growth of a civically-engaged, relevant archaeology, outline a future trajectory for the field in this concise, thoughtful volume. Drawing from the archaeological study of race and labor, among other examples, the authors explore this crucial opportunity and responsibility, then point the way for the discipline to contribute to the contemporary public good.
