Book Description
The discourse around derelict, former industrial and military sites has grown in recent years. This interest is not only theoretical, and landscape professionals are taking new approaches to the design and development of these sites. This book examines the varied ways in which the histories and qualities of these derelict sites are reimagined in the transformed landscape and considers how such approaches can reveal the dramatic changes that have been wrought on these places over a relatively short time scale. It discusses these issues with reference to eleven sites from the UK, Germany, the USA, Australia and China, focusing specifically on how designers incorporate evidence of landscape change, both cultural and natural. There has been little research into how these developed landscapes are perceived by visitors and local residents. This book examines how the tangible material traces of pastness are interpreted by the visitor and the impact of the intangible elements - hidden traces, experiences and memories. The book draws together theory in the field and implications for practice in landscape architecture and concludes with an examination of how different approaches to revealing and reimagining change can affect the future management of the site.

Book Description
The management of industrial heritage sites requires rethinking in the context of urban change, and the issue of how to balance protection, preservation/conservation, and development becomes all the more crucial as industrial heritage sites grow in number. This brings into play new challenges—not only through the known conflicts between monument preservation and contemporary architecture, but also with the increasing demand for economic urban development by reusing the built heritage of former industrial sites. This book explores the conservation and change of industrial heritage sites in transformation, presenting and examining ten European and Asian case studies. The interdisciplinary approach of the book connects a diversity of rationales and discourses, including monument protection, World Heritage conventions, urban regeneration, urban planning and design, architecture, and politics. This is the first book to deepen the understanding of industrial heritage site management as a networked, multi-dimensional task involving diverse social agents and societal discourses.

Book Description
Developing Industrial and Mining Heritage Sites offers a multifaceted examination of the challenges and opportunities in the development of industrial & mining heritage. It does so through the case study of Lavrion, Turkey, by examining the historical process of this former mining site which has turned intoa site of industrial and cultural heritage. It explores the ruins and monuments which could be considered the industrial & mining heritage of Lavrion, the restoration, and rehabilitation of the mine buildings, and describes the activities succeeded through the management of a university and through the provided finance on an abandoned mining site. The book also highlights the challenges experienced from the restoration of an abandoned mine site until it turned into an industrial & mining heritage. This book will be of interest to researchers in the fields of industrial heritage & tourism, urban conservation, mining history, post mining, archaeology, archaeometallurgy, geology and mineralogy, as well as policy makers and industry professionals.
