I think that everybody heard about what happened in Pompei- just the last of a long series of cultural heritage losses due to mismanagement.
As I wrote before, I think that the Italian cultural heritage is a shared heritage- and Italy lacks the resources to manage everything: what you find inside the UNESCO list (45 sites) is just the tip of the iceberg.
But I read over the last few days too many articles talking about principles, not practicalities.
Therefore, I would like to share some considerations derived from data (on the actual costs involved in protecting cultural heritage) and experience (on project/programme and service management).
Everyday politics :)
Thursday, July 30th, 2009Aristotle said that, by nature, we are all political animals.
When I wrote in the title “everyday politics” I was not thinking about “professional” politics.
I was simply stating: with the new technologies, that disrupt the usual communication organizations and control, everybody can do a political action. Everyday.
Read below to see how to begin now. Without a budget. Just a brain and a keyboard, and some experience to share.
