Sumario: | Approaching heritage governance involves an exercise in deep understanding of the dimensions involvedthere: the distribution of power, cultural practices, the economic dimension, social imaginaries andothers. In this work we seek to respond what factors enable the democratic governance of sites withheritage declarations? From the application of the bibliographic review and field visits, informationwas collected that, from a qualitative strategy that combines structured observation and interviews,allowed to analyze the particularities and common experiences in two cases of archaeological heritagemanagement in Ecuador: Ingapirca and Cerro de Hojas-Jaboncillo. The processing of social conflict,institutional trajectories and heritage appropriation processes are elements that lead to the findings ofthis work. The inquiry strategy involved designing a methodological tool and its application on the twomentioned sites to 30 local informants from different social groups. |
