Aims & Scope
The European Journal of Creative Practices in Cities and Landscapes (CPCL) is a biannual open-access peer-reviewed journal that aims to publish innovative and original papers on cultural heritage in the built environment as a set of creative practices. The focus will be the European city, with a particular attention to its transformations within the global metropolis and its flows of people, capitals, goods and ideas. Cultural heritage is considered as a set of practices able to produce economic and social changes within cities rather than a static repository of listed objects to be preserved. Through a series of call for papers and thematic sections, the journal provides a space of reflection on the ideas, the technologies, the actors and the practices that continuously produce and re-negotiate cultural heritage as a common good - a space for democracy, participation and citizenship. The journal’s ambition is to constitute a practice-oriented platform for knowledge exchange bringing together academics from various disciplinary backgrounds, policy makers and NGOs. Topics will include, but will not be limited to: Politics of cultural heritage Historic cities and global culture: citizenship, migrations and the postcolonial city Urban History as politics/urban history for policies Economies and management of collective values Culture and cities in the Anthropocene Aesthetics and philosophy of the city Technologies for cultural heritage and digital humanities Heritage and digital democracy Cultural heritage as urban commons Culture, cities and social innovation
