The Heritage Journal (ISSN:
0219-8584) publishes research articles on the history, culture and the art
practices of Asia, with an emphasis on material culture, cultural resource
management and museum practice. It is a publication of Singapore's National
Heritage Board.
The National Heritage Board is
responsible for preserving and documenting Singapore’s cultural, artistic,
historical, and social heritage. The vision of the board is 'To Make
Heritage An Enriching Part Of Everyone’s Life'. It does this with a number
of institutions under its auspices – the National Archives, the National
Museum of Singapore, the Singapore Art Museum, the Asian Civilisations
Museum, and a Philatelic Museum. These institutions run ambitious schedules
of educational outreach programs, lectures, academic and cultural programs,
and publications. The museums are regional in scope, presenting broad yet
integrated perspectives of pan-Asian cultures and civilisations. The Board
seeks to promote a better appreciation of the rich cultures that makeup
Singapore’s multi-ethnic society.
The Heritage Journal is regional
in coverage and the main scholarly publication of the National Heritage
Board. The Asia-Studies compendium includes the full-text of all articles
from The Heritage Journal.
