Vrijednosti nematerijalne baštine u integralnom razvojnom planiranju - Studije slučaja u Bujama u Istri

The methodology of mapping and programming spatial potentials are in need of a new platform – a kind of programming agenda - in order to achieve maximal result which would facilitate developmental goals. Namely, official physical and/or master plans, as well as strategic economic studies lack holistic approach. While the former are not fruitful in terms of economic growth, the latter are not greatly concerned with the specificities of space. Such disadvantages can be overcome by interdisciplinary on-site cooperation. This paper deals specifically with such implications and with interactions between physical planning and strategic economic development related to the potentials of non-material values of a particular region. Those values are fluid, yet universal: they are not strictly linked to tangible heritage remains that could complicate their proper preservation. Economic heritage as a non-material form of heritage encompasses a vast array of forms (homestead in a broad sense of the word, including activities such as feedstock production, traditional cuisine, handcraft and personal services, manufacture and industry), which may be deeply rooted in a local environment. The recognition of one’s own development potential is a key factor behind the success of any environment. Spatial potential of an area in terms of its geographical location or its cultural and historic heritage may theoretically provide the same similar development basis. Even if the heritage perishes, as this may be the case in transition processes, or loses its material form, it still remains in the memory of space as a form of economic heritage – the brand of a place. This becomes particularly important in the context of an increasing space consumption trend which, due to a tendency to serve only profits’ interests as well as a lack of proper space strategy, achieves a short term economic growth but brings about long-term social deficit. Initial investment effect is not followed by strategic development results whereas a badly planned intervention in space remains an unfortunate intrusion into the social community thus hindering long-term development. Successful environments manage to recognize and activate those heritage resources which contribute to the competitiveness and productivity of local economy.
