From the publisher's blurb "Having succeeded in establishing themselves in Europe Asia Africa and the Americas in the early 16th century Spain and Portugal became the first imperial powers on a worldwide scale. Between 1580 and 1640 when these two entities were united they achieved an almost global hegemony constituting the largest political force in Europe and abroad. Although they lost their political primacy in the seventeenth century both monarchies survived and were able to enjoy a relative success until the early 19th century. The aim of this collection is to answer the question how and why their cultural and political legacies persist to date. Part I focuses on the construction of the monarchy examining the ways different territories integrated in the imperial network mainly by inquiring to what extent local political elites maintained their autonomy and to what a degree they shared power with the royal administration. Part II deals primarily with the circulation of ideas models and people . . . "Member I.O.B.A. C.B.A. and adherent to the highest ethical standards.

Publisher's full black cloth white lettering on spine. Illustrated with numerous B&W photographs. Includes extensive Notes Bibliography and Index. The enormous task of preserving the world's heritage in the face of war natural disaster vandalism neglect and technical obsolescence.The monuments-movable immovable tangible and intangible-of the world's shared cultural heritage are at risk. War terrorism natural disaster vandalism and neglect make the work of preservation a greater challenge than it has been since World War II. Cloonan makes the case that at this critical juncture we must consider preservation in the broadest possible contexts. Preservation requires the efforts of an increasing number of stakeholders.In order to explore the cultural political technological economic and ethical dimensions of preservation Cloonan examines particular monuments and their preservation dilemmas. The massive Bamiyan Buddhas blown up by the Taliban in 2001 are still the subject of debates over how or whether to preserve what remains and the US National Park Service has undertaken the complex task of preserving the symbolic and often ephemeral objects that visitors leave at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial-to take just two of the many examples described in the book. Cloonan also considers the ongoing genocide and cultural genocide in Syria; the challenges of preserving our digital heritage; the dynamic between original and copy; efforts to preserve the papers and architectural fragments of the architect Louis Sullivan; and the possibility of sustainable preservation. In the end Cloonan suggests we are what we preserve-and don't preserve. Every day we make preservation decisions individually and collectively that have longer-term ramifications than we might expect.
