Tourism - Driven Monument Conservation and Cultural Heritage Governance:The Intercessing Role of Architecture in India
Abstract: The relationship between tourism and monument conservation has become increasingly significant in contemporary heritage management. With the continued growth of tourism, heritage sites are increasingly required to accommodate new demands of accessibility, movement, interpretation, and infrastructure, leading to conflict between conservation and development of the sites through tourism. In this sense, architecture acts as an important intermediary for such processes. This paper examines the intersection of architecture, tourism, and cultural …

Preservation to Continuity:Reconsidering Heritage Management Paradigms
Abstract: Conventional heritage management frameworks largely treat heritage as a finite collection of monuments and protected sites, prioritizing material conservation over cultural continuity. In rapidly transforming socio-urban contexts, such approaches often fail to address the dynamic relationships between heritage, lived cultural practices, and collective memory. The primary objective of this study is to develop a holistic heritage management framework that integrates tangible and intangible heritage through participatory governance and adaptive policy …

Photo-Catalytic Degradation of Dyes Using Graphene Oxide–Dithizone Composite
Abstract: Graphene oxide–dithizone (GO–DTZ) composite was successfully synthesized through the copolymerization of graphene oxide and dithizone to develop an efficient photocatalytic material for wastewater treatment. The dithizone polymer was prepared using a 1:2 molar ratio, while graphene oxide was synthesized via the modified Hummers’ method to obtain highly oxidized graphene sheets with abundant oxygen-containing functional groups. The GO–DTZ nanocomposite was fabricated by ultrasonically dispersing graphene oxide with the synthesized dithizone polymer …
