Kamran, M (2022) Role of cultural heritage in promoting the resilience of linear/critical infrastructure system with the enhancement of economic dimension of resilience: A critical review. International Journal of Construction Management, 22(7), pp. 1345-1354. ISSN 1562-3599
Abstract
The research trend reveals that resilience is the most emerging concept for the mitigation of losses related to disaster. It can play a significant role for the sustained improvement of system if the cultural heritage is preserved and promoted to create awareness and economic stability through tourism and various other means. However, with the continuous increase in urbanization, cities become more vulnerable to the menace of disaster. Infrastructure resilience evaluation provides key attributes in all phases, i.e., before, during and after disaster. If these attributes are tackling correctly, then it becomes easy to foster infrastructure resilience. Cultural heritage connects the communities to the past and makes an equal contribution to the economic development. In this paper, past methodologies have been critically reviewed focusing on resilience of the infrastructure system and suggested an analytical approach to tackle the very concept of resilience through the economic dimension through cultural heritage preservation.

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
