Superando las Dicotomías: el Qhapaq Ñan como Ejemplo del Patrimonio como Proceso Social

Recent academic discourse on heritage management has often framed state-led conservation and community involvement as opposing forces, treating cultural heritage as a static object rather than a dynamic social process. This study challenges such dichotomies by analyzing the Qhapaq Ñan, an Andean road system, to demonstrate how heritage can serve as a space for negotiation and democratic participation. It critiques existing narratives that position scholars or managers as sole interlocutors while sidelining local voices. Instead, it advocates for a model of co-management that prioritizes the agency of all stakeholders, ensuring their active involvement in shaping heritage practices. By reframing the Qhapaq Ñan as a living process rather than a fixed discourse, this approach aims to foster social recomposition and democratize heritage governance.
