Sažetak
In the past few decades, long evolving conservation principles experienced dissemination and contestation. Understanding of their origin and meaning shifted from enthusiastic theoretical and historical studies to preoccupied diagnoses and alarming prophecies. On the one hand, globalization led to new levels of emancipation ; on the other, in and outside Europe, it gave rise to contesting revisions, instigated by this continent’s colonial and totalitarian pasts. Post-1989 conservation movement is characterized by revision of professional standards, overwhelming commodification and promotion of non-material values in newly discovered memorial landscapes. The text discusses one of the earliest discovered and most frequently contested concepts, materiality of monuments. Along with already opened questions of social and political aspects of the history of conservation, it suggests examining the relations between conservation ethics and philosophical inquiries on matter.
