DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nThe main goal of this talk is to provide a review 
 of the current state of affairs in researching and managing heritage in Ce
 ntral Asia – a vast part of Asia comprising five post-Soviet states. The
  speaker\, himself from Central Asia\, has worked extensively in the regio
 n both before and after completing a PhD on heritage and its interaction w
 ith nation-building efforts. The talk is envisioned as a discussion sessio
 n\, posing more questions than answers\, and aims to raise awareness of th
 e issues from the perspectives of both heritage management and critical he
