HERITAGE VS. FETISH

  • Dragan J. Bulatović University of Belgrade

Abstract

This paper discusses the strategic importance of understanding, accepting and preserving heritage as material and spiritual values as well as the value of its experience. We explain the potential of heritage as life-long practice of advancement based on difference that exists between inheritance (that which is an excess) and heritage (which is appropriated as a value for individual practice). Although analysis of our social practice of management and the delight in its fruits as heritage re-veals complete inactivity, we maintain that the experi-ence of inheriting as such is the only real general re-source with which we will enter the era of knowledge
