HERITAGE, ENVIRONMENT & TOURISM
Meetings of the Society for Applied Anthropology
La Fonda Hotel, Santa Fe, New Mexico
April 5-10, 2005
The Santa Fe meetings provide an excellent locale for exploring the
closely related themes of Heritage, Environment & Tourism. Heritage has
become a major focal point for national, regional and local development
initiatives. As heritage is seen to have both external and internal
value, how can we participate in such areas as heritage development and
resource management while still defending the rights of communities to
control how their heritages are represented? In a similar manner, the
environment is increasingly being viewed as a kind of “natural
heritage,” implying a strong association between environmental
conservation and human associations with the environment.
In keeping with the Society’s interdisciplinary roots, the Program
Committee invites the participation of a wide variety of professionals,
including anthropologists, archaeologists, geographers, sociologists,
folklorists, public historians, tourism researchers and practitioners,
natural scientists, museum professionals, and others. Symposia and
individual papers are also invited and actively encouraged in all other
areas of applied endeavor, such as health and medicine, agriculture and
rural development, education, migration and resettlement, business and
corporate issues, language, urban and regional development,
community-based and participatory models for practice, applied research
methods and planning approaches, and diversity and human rights
initiatives.
