Controlling the Past, Owning the Future

The Political Uses of Archaeology in the Middle East

Buch

What are the political uses, and misuses, of archaeology in the Middle East? The contributors to this volume discuss a variety of case studies, including the Taliban's destruction of Buddhas in Afghanistan, the commercialization of archaeology in Israel, and the debate over Turkish identity sparked by the film Troy, and in the process form various views of the role of the archaeologist, from steward of the historical record to agent of social change.
