Community Archives, Community Spaces : Heritage, Memory and Identity
This book traces the trajectory of the community archives movement, expanding the definition of community archives to include sites such as historical societies, social movement organisations and community centres.It also explores new definitions of what community archives might encompass, particularly in relation to disciplines outside the archives. Over ten years have passed since the first volume of Community Archives, and inspired by continued research as well as by the formal recognition of community archives in the UK, the community archives movement has become an important area of research, recognition and appreciation by archivists, archival scholars and others worldwide.Increasingly the subject of papers and conferences, community archives are now seen as being in the vanguard of social concerns, markers of community-based activism, a participatory approach exemplifying the on-going evolution of ‘professional’ archival (and heritage) practice and integral to the ability of people to articulate and assert their identity.Community Archives, Community Spaces reflects the latest research and includes practical case studies on the challenges of building and sustaining community archives.This new book will appeal to practitioners, researchers, and academics in the archives and records community as well as to historians and other scholars concerned with community building and social issues.

Regulating Transnational Heritage : Memory, Identity and Diversity
There is a vast body of international and national law that regulates cultural heritage.However, the current regulation remains quite blind to the so called "transnational heritage".This is heritage where there is no community recognized in law that it can be directly attributed to and that can be responsible for its safekeeping and preservation.It can also be items of heritage where the claim of ownership is disputed between two or more peoples or communities.Transnational heritage challenges the idea of monolithic, mono-cultural, ethno-national states.There are a number of examples of such cultural heritage, for instance the Buddhist Bamiyan statutes in Afghanistan, Palmyra in Syria, the Jewish heritage of Iraq, or various items that are currently housed in large, often Western, museums, as a result of colonial practices.This book explores the regulation of transnational heritage.By discussing many cases of transnational heritage and the problems that arise due to the lack of regulation the book analyses the manifestations of memories and constructions of communities through heritage.It focuses particularly on the concept of community.How are communities constructed in cultural heritage law and what falls outside of the definitions of community?The book underlines that the issues surrounding transnational heritage involve more than a communal right to culture.It is argued that transnational heritage also directly affects wider matters of law such as citizenship, human rights, sovereignty, as well as the movement of people and cultural goods.

Archiving Caribbean Identity : Records, Community, and Memory
Archiving Caribbean Identity highlights the "Caribbeanization" of archives in the region, considering what those archives could include in the future and exploring the potential for new records in new formats.Interpreting records in the broadest sense, the 15 chapters in this volume explore a wide variety of records that represent new archival interpretations.The book is split into two parts, with the first part focusing on record forms that are not generally considered "archival" in traditional Western practice.The second part explores more "traditional" archival collections and demonstrates how these collections are analysed and presented from the perspective of Caribbean peoples.As a whole, the volume suggests how colonial records can be repurposed to surface Caribbean narratives.Reflecting on the unique challenges faced by developing countries as they approach their archives, the volume considers how to identify and archive records in the forms and formats that reflect the postcolonial and decolonized Caribbean, how to build an archive of the people that documents contemporary society and reflects Caribbean memory, and how to repurpose the colonial archives so that they assist the Caribbean in reclaiming its history. Archiving Caribbean Identity demonstrates how non-textual cultural traces function as archival records and how folk-centred perspectives disrupt conventional understandings of records.The book should thus be of interest to academics and students engaged in the study of archives, memory, culture, history, sociology, and the colonial and postcolonial experience.

Reconstructions of Canadian Identity : Towards Diversity and Inclusion
Re-envisioning multiculturalism in CanadaIn 1971, Canada became the first nation in the world to officially declare its bilingual and multicultural policies.Reconstructions of Canadian Identity examines what has changed over the past fifty years, highlighting the lived experiences of minoritized Canadians and offering insights into the critical work that lies ahead. Editors Vander Tavares and Maria João Maciel Jorge bring together a wide range of disciplines and perspectives to investigate inclusion and exclusion within the processes, discourses, and practices that forge and frame Canadian identity.Chapters analyze ways in which current multicultural policies continue to benefit the dominant groups and (further) harm minoritized ones, articulating a body politic that might encompass both Indigenous and settler cultures, lifestyles, and histories. Exposing the pitfalls of established notions of Canadian identity, this volume moves traditionally othered identities--immigrant, racialized, hybridized, Indigenous, and women--to the forefront.In doing so, it reveals how these identities negotiate and claim legitimacy, arguing for a reconceptualization from the margins that truly fosters diversity and inclusion.Illustrating both the shortcomings of and possibilities for a more inclusive multiculturalism in Canada, Reconstructions of Canadian Identity invites readers to reflect on what it means to be Canadian in the 21st century.

Is gender identity sexist?
Gender identity itself is not inherently sexist. Gender identity is a deeply personal and individual experience that reflects a person's internal sense of their own gender, which may or may not align with the sex they were assigned at birth. However, societal norms, expectations, and stereotypes around gender can be sexist, as they often reinforce traditional gender roles and perpetuate inequality between genders. It is important to separate the concept of gender identity from these societal constructs in order to promote understanding and acceptance of diverse gender identities.
