Research interests
Key to Laurajane's interests is the understanding of heritage studies as an area of policy analysis and as a cultural process worthy of critical examination. Her work challenges the idea of heritage as primarily or simply an 'object' or 'site’ and re-theorises heritage as a cultural performance and practice of meaning and memory making. More particularly, her research interests include understanding the way heritage is used as a cultural tool in the process of remembering, forgetting and identity construction; the politics of heritage; the interplay between class and heritage; multiculturalism and heritage representation; community heritage; heritage tourism and heritage public policy and the cultural politics of identity.
Biography
Laurajane Smith is professor of Heritage and Museum Studies, a fellow of the Society for the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia, she has had a career long interest in the politics of heritage making. She is founder of the Association of Critical Heritage Studies and has been editor of the International Journal of Heritage Studies since 2009. She is co-general editor with Dr Gönül Bozoglu of Routledge’s Key Issues in Cultural Heritage. In 2018, she was awarded a Doctor Honoris Causa for scientific merit, from the University of Antwerp, Belgium, and in 2021 she was the recipient of the European Archaeology Association Heritage Prize. She is currently one of ten CNRS 'fellow-ambassador' (2023-5).
Prior to arriving at the ANU in 2010, she held the position of Reader in heritage studies at the University of York, UK, where she directed the MA in Cultural Heritage Management for nine years. Originally from Sydney, she taught Indigenous Studies at the University of New South Wales (1995-2000), and heritage and archaeology at Charles Sturt University (1990-1995). She also worked as a heritage consultant in south-eastern Australia during the 1980s.
Her key books include Uses of Heritage (2006) and Emotional Heritage (2021) and the edited volumes Intangible Heritage (2009) and Safeguarding Intangible Heritage (2019) both with Natsuko Akagawa, Emotion, Affective Practices, and the Past in the Present (2018) with Margaret Wetherell and Gary Campbell, Heritage, Labour and the Working Class (2011) with Paul A. Shackel and Gary Campbell, and Representing Enslavement and Abolition in Museums: Ambiguous engagements (2011) with Geoff Cubitt, Ross Wilson and Kalliopi Fouseki.
Researcher's projects
- Heritage and Reconciliation (DP200102850, CI1) 2020-2023
Team: Cressida Fforde, Laurajane Smith, Daryle Rigney, Peter Stone, Steve Hemming, Paul Tapsell, Greg Lehman, Lia Kent, Merata Kawharu.
This project will re-conceptualise heritage from a standpoint of reconciliation. In doing so, it will generate new understandings about how heritage and its management can contribute to reconciliation processes. The project will combine Aboriginal, Maori and Western intellectual traditions in order to advance theoretical understandings of heritage and to examine its reconstructive power. It will produce models for practical implementation, including new conservation and management protocols. The project's investigation of a new approach to heritage has the potential for profound social benefit.
- Cultural heritage and the mediation of identity, memory and historical narratives (ARC Future Fellowship 2010-2014).
The aim of this work was to document the way museum exhibitions and heritage sites are used to construct and negotiate social and cultural values and meanings. It is accepted that museum and heritage site audiences are not simply passive receptors of the curator's or interpreter's messages, but how audiences actually engage with exhibitions and heritages and what they do with the messages they take away is neither documented or understood. By charting and comparing the way heritage is used by heritage professionals, community groups and audiences in Australia, USA and England, the project will reveal the political, cultural and social 'work' that heritage does in society. Key publication: Smith, L. 2021, Emotional Heritage: Visitor Engagement at Museums and Heritage Sites, London: Routledge.
- 1807 Commemorated 2007-9 (AHRC Knowledge Transfer Fellowship, UK).
The central aim of the 1807 Commemorated project was to both map and analyse the responses of museums and their audiences to the 2007 bicentenary of the abolition of the slave trade act of 1807. Key publications: Smith, L. 2010 ‘Man’s inhumanity to man’ and other platitudes of avoidance and misrecognition: an analysis of visitor responses to exhibitions marking the 1807 bicentenary, Museum and Society, 8(3): 193-214 AND Smith, L., G. Cubitt, R. Wilson and K. Fouseki (eds) 2011. Representing Enslavement and Abolition in Museums: Ambiguous engagements. New York: Routledge.
- Heritage and memory in Castleford, West Yorkshire (British Academy funded).
This project documented the ways in which collective memories of work and place were renegotiated using discourses of 'heritage' in the context of deindustrialization and community regeneration.
