[S1E25] ⛰️ Heritage-Making with Professor Aike Rots
from Beyond Japan with Oliver Moxham Hosted by Centre for Japanese Studies at UEA
Oliver is joined by Aike Rots, Associate Professor of Japan Studies at the University of Oslo, to discuss Heritage-Making in Japan, examining how the process of ‘heritagisation’ can secularise and politicise religious sites, such as Shinto shrines and natural areas of religious significance to Okinawan and Ainu communities, and the role of nationalism within heritage.
