内容説明

In only 50 years, the Spanish and Portuguese conquistadors established most of the cities that now comprise the cornerstone of urban Latin America. The monuments, buildings and plazas that make up the vast urban heritage continue to define the region's cultural identity and constitute a valuable asset for socioeconomic development. This text explores ways to bring private investors, developers and urban residents into the preservation process, which is beyond the scope of government alone. With photographs, maps and diagrams, the book describes the different appraoches being used to involve these various stakeholders, including interventions by public and private stakeholders in Cartagena, Colombia; operation of a mixed-capital corporation in Quito, Ecuador; and a government-promoted private investment programme in Recife, Brazil. The experiencecs of these three historic Latin America cities provide significant clues about conditions that attract investment, and show why sustained private involvment is the key to furthering heritage preservation in the region.
