Abstract

The paper discusses Indiaâs presentation of Project Mausam for possible transnational World Heritage status at the 38th session of the World Heritage Committee meeting in Doha, Qatar, in June 2014 and compares this with the recent adoption by UNESCO of a transnational project entitled Maritime Silk Routes funded by China. The latter draws its title from the romanticism of the âSilk Roadâ that linked China with the Mediterranean by sea as popularized by early twentieth-century writers. One of the objectives of the paper is to address a vital issue relating to the role of the disciplinary specialist in the framing of themes to be considered for UNESCO World Heritage dossiers. A related issue is the agency responsible for initiating the nomination process. These questions are important in respect of the narratives that have been universalized for global recognition and have far-reaching implications for the preservation and protection of monuments and archaeological sites.
