Journal of Heritage Management (JHM)

The Journal of Heritage Management is an interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed academic journal that has served since 2016 as a leading platform for research on heritage management theory and practice. Published biannually by SAGE Publications in collaboration with the Centre for Heritage Management at Ahmedabad University, the journal brings together scholarship that explores how heritage — in its cultural, historical, and material forms — is conserved, managed, and integrated into contemporary social, economic, and policy contexts. The journal uniquely bridges rigorous academic inquiry with real-world relevance, providing space for work that engages critically with issues such as heritage conservation strategies, policy frameworks, community-based heritage practices, cultural tourism, sustainability, and heritage economics. Its interdisciplinary focus attracts contributions from fields including art history, archaeology, architecture, anthropology, cultural studies, and environmental design. The journal emphasizes both theoretical innovation and practical application, encouraging research that deepens understanding of heritage as a living resource — shaped by social values, economic pressures, and governance systems. It also features case studies, critiques of policy interventions, and comparative analyses that highlight heritage management challenges in diverse cultural settings. With its global outlook and contextual sensitivity, Journal of Heritage Management appeals to academics, cultural heritage practitioners, policymakers, and students interested in advancing sustainable, inclusive, and effective approaches to heritage stewardship.
