Product Description

Although there has been, in recent times, a widespread interest in pre­servation and promotion of Indigenous Heritage or Knowledge Systems from a variety of disciplines and sectors, from across the globe – the design principles or modalities of a holistic conservation remains largely un­explored. This volume explores this lacunae and proposes the concept of Ecosemiotic Community Museuology (ECM), and a road map for it, through theory and practice. Based on the trajectories of conservation – natural, cultural and museological – down time, and indigenous epistemological premises brought forth from previous research, the treatise proposes the concept of ECM as a paradigm for successful community-based con­servation of indigenous knowledge systems or indigenous biocultural heritage?in?its?holistic?wholeness.
