This book explores living heritage through nomadic heritage in Inner Mongolia, China. Using a critical heritage approach, it examines how heritage is understood and enacted within changing communities and shifting lifestyles, revealing the dynamic nature of nomadic cultural heritage.

The book critically re-examines nomadic heritage, capturing socio-cultural transformations and engaging in an ontological inquiry into living heritage. By bridging theory and practice, as well as tangible and intangible heritage, it redefines heritage’s intrinsic logic in a changing world. Focusing on the ger, a dwelling central to Mongolian nomadic life, it analyses the continuity and transformation of ger practices. Using ethnographic research, it highlights the human-material-environment dynamic and the agency of multiple stakeholders in shaping heritage.

This work is a key contribution to living heritage and nomadic heritage studies, offering valuable insights for scholars, professionals, and those interested in nomadic culture.

Arvustused

An interesting book that vividly portrays the people and lives of contemporary nomadic society. Grounded in rich fieldwork and coherent theory, it bridges critical heritage studies with community practice and policy debate. The book reveals how continuity and change are negotiated in rapidly modernising contexts. I recommend it to heritage scholars and practitioners worldwide.

- Dr Yan Haiming, Director of ICOMOS China/Researcher at China Academy of Cultural Heritage

Comprehensive, up-to-date and copiously illustrated, this is an outstanding study of the changing forms and functions of the Mongolian felt tent. Together with a penetrating analysis of living heritage in China, a must-read for anyone interested in the region.

"Drawing on the ger as a central case study, Liu demonstrates that tangible cultural heritage is not an unchanging legacy but an evolving, dynamic, and fluid process shaped by continual transformation over time. Challenging conventional approaches to heritage understanding and management, her book advances a creative, forward-looking conception of heritage that enhances its benefits for present and future generations.
