This project will shed light on the complex reality of heritage production and preservation within Triglav National Park (TNP), a central site of Slovenia's national heritage, and two Croatian parks - Paklenica National Park and Mljet National Park. The park is a unique cultural and natural landscape that houses a whole range of heritage sites, natural and cultural, material and intangible; it represents both opportunities and challenges for the park inhabitants and visitors. Its existence and maintenance is regulated by a set of national and international laws and conventions that articulate the park's particular status and that prescribe the relationship between the park and its residents as well as visitors. The proposed project will demonstrate the way that a strategic multi-site ethnographic and multi-method study can shed light on the social role that the existing configuration of multiple heritage sites plays in the park. How do heritage sites and heritage practices shape daily life and development issues - providing both opportunities and challenges for the range of actors, groups and institutions involved in the park on a daily basis? The key to researching the role of heritage practices in the TNP hinges on approaching the existing range of heritage sites as cultural constructions, as an expression of the defining feature of the concept of heritage. Heritage status that is bestowed upon certain phenomena is an expression of special shared significance that these phenomena hold for any cultural group. They are thus presumed to constitute an important part of a culture's identity, ones that justify protection from any perceived threats and that are to be passed on from one generation to the next.
Short description of the task performed by Croatian partner
The project aims at exploring the relationship between the local population of the island of Mljet towards the regulations of the National Park. for example, according to these regulations the fishing is being limited for island residents which makes difficult for them to maintain this main branch of houshold economy. The law stipulates the mesh size for the nets and traps, and prohibits the use of those with smaller mesh size. Locals often come in conflict with the management of the National Park as well as the police authorities. In addition to traditional fishing the project aims at researching other forms of island economy like production of vine, olives and traditional food as part of tourism in the National Park. One of the aspects explored will also be traditional beliefs and religious worldview of Mljet residents. As for the Paklenica National Park, the tourist, cultural and sports activities within it will be put in perspective towards the possible ruining of the natural and heritage areas. For the last twenty years, a great number of visitors comes to enjoy the beauty of the natural heritage and to test their skills in sport climbing on the well known rock climbing ascents on Paklenica karst rocks. It is very important that too many climbers don't disturb the natural look of karst phenomena, and that human activity doesn't devastate the area. We should not forget that in the National Park, people have always lived with their flocks of sheep and goats. These old settlements are slowly being abandoned as the population descends down to warm coastal areas. Another recent aspect explored will be the roundtrip that local people are doing by returning back to the mountain to present the local cuisine to visitors as well as the products of old domestic trades.
