      abstract = {This book investigates the role of cultural heritage as a  constitutive dimension of different civilizing missions  from the colonial era to the present. It includes case  studies of the Habsburg Empire and German colonialism in  Africa, Asian case studies of (post)colonial India and the  Dutch East Indies/Indonesia, China and French Indochina,  and a special discussion on 20th-century Cambodia and the  temples of Angkor. The themes examined range from  architectural and intellectual history to historic  preservation and restoration. Taken together, they offer an  overview of historical processes spanning two centuries of  institutional practices, wherein the concept of cultural  heritage was appropriated both by political regimes and for  UNESCO World Heritage agendas.},
