Summary:

This Pragmatic Guide to Consultation in cultural and environmental management distills decades of experience by two of the leading figures in this area. Nissley and King reject the idea that consulting with communities and other stakeholder is merely checking off a box on the list of tasks required to implement a project. Instead, they show government agencies and project sponsors how to find the relevant parties, to discuss the project in an open and continuous fashion, to consider alternative strategies, and to seek agreement that meets everyone's needs. The authors also provide useful guidance to community leaders and other stakeholders to help them represent their interests in the consultation process. Complete with practical suggestions and cases of successful (and less successful) consultation projects, Consulting in Cultural Heritage is a book that no one involved in this field should be without.
