The fifth session, under the title Significance and difficult heritage, will discuss and intangible but very important effect of conflicts, that is the negative perception of heritage as bearing negative symbolic values. To frame the discussion on cases from ongoing conflicts, the discussion on post-colonialism process will be introduced by examples in Africa and Latin America, along with the discussion on “difficult heritage” in Europe after WW II.
