In this paper, we propose a model of interdisciplinary engagement with partners on both sides of the intrinsic/instrumental divide. We demonstrate this through three recent lines of effort undertaken by the Cultural Heritage Monitoring Lab and discuss the lessons learned from those projects. In detailing the unique and often divergent priorities and resources of CPP stakeholders across three lines of effort, our objective is to orient readers to the productive partnerships that can exist in the space between intrinsic and instrumental communities of interest in CPP. The authors conclude with a synthesis of five principles for forging effective partnerships that bridge CPP’s intrinsic and instrumental values.","PeriodicalId":211364,"journal":{"name":"Preservation Education & Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139299931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are opportunities within the existing tribal consultation policies to build foundational relationships with DoD components. This paper discusses two variations of tribal consultation conducted by Fort Moore (formerly Fort Benning) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and how they are useful, limited, or can be utilized for collaborative opportunities. By highlighting the exceptional work of MCN partners in our ancestral homelands, we seek to bring awareness and protection of Muscogee cultural sites.","PeriodicalId":211364,"journal":{"name":"Preservation Education & Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139299337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both sides, however, need to be better versed in cooperating, as there is typically minimal overlap in these professional fields. This article examines the use of tabletop and live exercises in educating cultural heritage professionals, empowering them to successfully cooperate with emergency responders that might be called upon for assistance in protecting cultural heritage in emergencies. Three exercises developed for that aim are presented and discussed. The focus of the exercises lays in establishing interfaces for successful future cooperation. In light of this training goal, the primary audience for these endeavors was heritage professionals, with knowledge creation centered on staff work procedures and decision-making processes—i.e., identifying the right way to communicate necessary expertise to the right person at the right time.","PeriodicalId":211364,"journal":{"name":"Preservation Education & Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139300845","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The history of racially segregated housing at Willert Park Courts is incredibly useful, but other factors indicate the structures may not be physically useful as housing today. This public housing complex in Buffalo, New York, was among the first to be designed specifically and exclusively for black residents; it was constructed in 1939 with a Zeilenbau site plan and Modern architecture that provided housing to a community typically excluded from the best facilities. Public housing is again needed at the abandoned site today, but some aspects of the original design do not actually meet the standards required today. In this sense, preserving this site as housing may end up repeating some of history's mistakes rather than learning from them. This article examines the technical difficulties in accommodating regulatory requirements at odds with the contemporary plans to reuse Willert Park Courts as public housing while preserving its historical integrity and seeking the voices of the people who lived there.","PeriodicalId":211364,"journal":{"name":"Preservation Education & Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116467444","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigated the ways in which the end users—residents, property owners, and investors—perceive design regulation to determine the degree to which residents felt either empowered or disenfranchised by the process. A combination of online survey and supporting archival research was utilized, first to collect resident opinions regarding the process, and then to cross-check those results with city records. Using this methodology, gaps between the way stakeholders perceive and understand the design regulatory process and the way it is implemented within each community were identified. With a better understanding of these misalignments, those responsible for executing design regulations are equipped to address the potential impacts that residents' perceptions can have on revitalization efforts within historic districts.","PeriodicalId":211364,"journal":{"name":"Preservation Education & Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130041736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But how has this concept affected the persistence of traditional craft skills, and what role do craftspeople serve on modern conservation sites? This paper observes the philosophical underpinning of conservation theory in the United Kingdom and the United States and its impact on heritage craft skills transfer. By studying historical and modern observations of “minimal intervention” concepts, along with the development of international standards, which incorporate wider concepts of “heritage” and “authenticity,” this paper argues that cultures that adhere to the nineteenth-century concepts of materiality should expand their concepts of heritage to include the intangible aspects of craft practice. Additionally, it argues that the hierarchical frameworks that currently exist on-site between practitioners and professionals should be reexamined to identify the enhanced role that craft workers can serve within the decision and execution processes of historic structure conservation.","PeriodicalId":211364,"journal":{"name":"Preservation Education & Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134476363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
