Abstract

Ovaj rad nastoji ispitati pojam i prakse neoliberalne logike upravljanja shvaćene kao guvernmentalitet u polju baštine, te ustanoviti do koje mjere je suvremeni baštinski diskurs njime obilježen. Također se nastoji ispitati u kojoj mjeri kulturne i baštinske institucije i čimbenici na državnoj i nadržavnim razinama utjelovljuju neoliberalni guvernmentalitet, te premošćuje li se implementacijom neoliberalnih politika već postojeća nejednakost između različitih razina djelovanja u polju baštine ili se produbljuju. Ovaj rad također nastoji ispitati kategorije univerzalnosti i raznolikosti koje u većoj mjeri obilježavaju neoliberalni diskurs, te uvidjeti na kojim se ideološkim pretpostavkama te kategorije zasnivaju, kao i propitati one kategorije koje se pritom isključuju ili prikrivaju. Propitavši njihove pretpostavke, ovim se radom također pokušava odrediti ograničeni doseg civilnodruštvenog djelovanja i uključenosti zajednice u procese oblikovanja baštine te donošenja odluka. Stavljajući proizvodnju javnog interesa u prvi plan, ispitat će se i paradigmatsko slabljenje intrinzične političnosti i konfliktnosti baštine, koje je u širem smislu svojstveno neoliberalnom guvernmentalitetu.

Abstract (english)

This paper aims to examine the notion and practices of the neoliberal logic of governing as
governmentality (Foucault) in the field of heritage and to determine in which ways it has shaped
the contemporary heritage discourse. It also strives to question whether national and
supranational institutions and agencies embody neoliberal governmentality, and if so, whether
the implementation of neoliberal policies manages to bridge or further undermines the already
present inequalities in the field of heritage production. This paper also aims to question the
categories of universality and diversity which are prevalent in the discourse of neoliberalism,
and to examine their ideological presuppositions in relation to categories which they exclude
or mask. By doing so, this paper will then examine the imposed limits of civil society
involvement and inclusion of the community in the processes of heritage and decision making.
Foregrounding the production of public interest, we shall also examine the paradigmatic
weakening of the intrinsically political and conflictual character of heritage which is
characteristic for neoliberal governmentality in a broader sense.
