Autor

Amalia Leifeste is an Assistant Professor for the Graduate Program in Historic Preservation co-sponsored by Clemson University, USA, and the College of Charleston, USA. Leifeste sees preservation practice as essential to 'cultural sustainability.' She is interested in how we educate practitioners and how place fosters group identity, and, as an architect, in defining how much and what kind of change can keep buildings useful for current needs without erasing essential touchstones of meaning. Barry L. Stiefel is an Associate Professor in the Graduate Program in Historic Preservation co-sponsored by the College of Charleston, USA, and Clemson University, USA. He is interested in how the sum of local preservation efforts affects regional, national, and multinational policies within the fields of cultural and natural heritage conservation, as well as the relationship of these studies to environmental sustainability. Dr. Stiefel has published numerous books and articles, including the book Community-Built: Art, Construction, Preservation, and Place, which he co-edited.
