The Military

This research paper examines the post-military landscape of the Victoria Barracks regarding the high-density urbanism in Hong Kong from the 1970s to the 2000s. The article first interprets the concept of post-military landscape according to the ideology and urbanism of the then Hong Kong society. It then studies three plans of the Victoria Barracks of different stages, showing contestations between domestic, commercial and administrative powers in controlling the military redevelopment. Several contemporary architectural projects on the site will also provide an alternative view of the transformation according to the local economic laissez-faire policy. Its influence to the unsatisfactory heritage protection leads to the disappearance and false representation of the identity of this particular military and cultural heritage.

The research covers the development of the legislation of the Ukrainian SSR cultural heritage protection problems. The rapid development of sectoral legislation in the second half of the twentieth century was driven by the need of preservation of cultural heritage sites, damaged during the Second World War, or affected by the improper use by various institutions and organizations.The purpose of the article is to analyze the specifics of legal regulation of cultural heritage protection in the Ukrainian SSR in the second half of the 1950 s – the end of the 1980 s.Scientific novelty. The analysis of the legislative acts of the Verkhovna Rada of the USSR and the Council of Ministers of the USSR, as well as by-laws of the Ministry of Culture of the USSR revealed the specifics of the legal regulation of cultural heritage protection in the Ukrainian SSR in the second half of the 1950 s – late 1980s, which consisted of application of separate national legal terminology. The main directions of legal regulation of cultural heritage protection during the period under review are singled out.Conclusions. Soviet legislation on the protection of cultural heritage, as any sectoral legislation, was unified, and the republican special-purpose laws duplicated Union norms. The legislation of the Ukrainian SSR of the 1950s – 1980s concerning the cultural heritage protection was developed in accordance with the Union legislation, as well as the decrees and orders of the USSR Government. At the same time, both federal and republican legislation had basic international rules, including the provisions of the 1972 Convention concerning the Protection of World Cultural and Natural Heritage, signed by the Soviet Union. The special aspect of the the Ukrainian SSR legislation was the consideration of some national traditions, including terminological ones. This could be noticed in the name of the Law of the Ukrainian SSR from July 13, 1978 «On the Protection and Use of Monuments of History and Culture», in which instead of the term «памятник» (monument) in the Russian language and the law, the term «monument» was introduced more wide term «пямятка» (site). In general, due to the consistent policy on conservation and extensive legislation, we have been able to preserve the destruction of monuments that remind the thousand-year history and culture of Ukraine.

Heritage Protection

Ochrona dziedzictwa kulturowego ma nie tylko konsekwencje społeczne, ale także polityczne i gospodarcze. Podczas gdy treść tożsamości narodowej i osobistej jest ściśle związana z odziedziczonym dziedzictwem kulturowym, dziedzictwo to, jeśli chodzi o kulturę materialną, wymaga wsparcia politycznego często poza środkami zainteresowanych krajów. Międzynarodowe wsparcie udzielane jest przez organizacje takie jak UNESCO z listą światowego dziedzictwa, która obejmuje światowe skarby kultury oraz pomniki przyrody. Politycznie dziedzictwo kulturowe może być zarówno spójne, jak i dzielące, gdy wykorzystywane jest do celów politycznych ukierunkowanych na polityczną hegemonię. Z ekonomicznego punktu widzenia koszt zachowania dziedzictwa kulturowego może być intratnym źródłem dochodów w wyniku globalnej promocji turystyki kulturalnej. Dzięki tym badaniom możemy dojść do wniosku, że państwo powinno ułatwić wzmocnienie pozycji społeczności poprzez zachowanie i rozwój dziedzictwa kulturowego – jego środowiska organicznego, ponieważ bez ochrony środowiska kulturowego i niewłaściwego wykorzystania oferowanych przez niego możliwości nie możemy osiągnąć tego prawa, tzn. możliwy, trwały rozwój społeczny i gospodarczy kraju.
