A matter of principle: Heritage management in Australia and China

The paper discusses recent cultural connections between Australia and the People's Republic of China in the development of modern heritage practice. In 1997 the Getty Conservation Institute, the then Australian Heritage Commission and the Chinese State Administration for Cultural Heritage decided to collaborate in the creation of a set of conservation principles for China. As part of the project senior cultural heritage administrators from China made several visits to Australia to visit sites, to meet with Australian heritage professionals, to use these experiences and work on drafting the Principles for the Conservation of Heritage Sites in China, known as the China Principles, while return visits were made to view a range of heritage sites in China. The paper reviews Australian and Chinese impressions of differing heritage concepts and practices and relates how concepts and practices from the Burra Charter were woven into the 'China Principles'.
