Criteria analysis and reasons for the inclusion of cultural and natural heritage in the UNESCO list

Diplomski rad podijeljen je u tri velika poglavlja. U prvom poglavlju teoretizira se baština, definirani su glavni pojmovi vezani uz baštinu, te je provedena rasprava o tome kako se baština poima s različitih stajališta. Također, navedena je podjela baštine na prirodnu i kulturnu, materijalnu i nematerijalnu, pokretnu i nepokretnu baštinu koja je bila potrebna za daljnju raspravu i analizu. Ovo poglavlje završava uvođenjem pojma procesa baštine i autorizirajućeg baštinskog diskursa koji baštinu stavlja u potpuno drugi koncept rasprave i razumijevanja. Poglavlje „Institucionalizacija baštine“ naglašava važnost, odnosno prednosti i posljedice, zaštite kultune i prirodne baštine. Navedene su i opisane najvažnije i najpoznatije organizacije za zaštitu baštine (UNESCO, ICOMOS) te njihov rad, povelje, te glavni predmet istraživanja, kriteriji zaštite prema kojima se baština uvrštava na UNESCO listu. U trećem poglavlju opisana je metodologija istraživanja te navedeni rezultati dobiveni provedenom analizom 30 nominacija za uvrštavanje na UNESCO listu nakon čega je provedena rasprava. Na kraju se na temelju činjenica proizišlih iz provedene analize dao zaključak na navedeni predmet istraživanja.The thesis is divided into three major chapters. The first chapter theorizes heritage, defines the main concepts related to heritage, and discusses how heritage is understood from different points of view. There is also stated the division of heritage into natural and cultural, tangible and intangible, movable and immovable heritage that was needed for further discussion and analysis. This chapter concludes with the introduction of the term „the heritage process“ and the Authorizing heritage discourse that puts heritage into a completely different concept of discussion and understanding.

In the conclusion, based on the facts arising from the conducted analysis, a conclusion was given on the mentioned subject of research
