About the Journal
The biannual journal erph was founded with the aim of establishing itself as a benchmark for protection of historical heritage, and as such its objectives and structure reflect the requirements and philosophy of the protection process itself. The Journal encompasses protection of historical heritage as a whole at a national and international level (legislation, administration, restoration, dissemination, etc.), as opposed to the fragmentary or partial coverage offered by other periodic publications in this field.
Aims and scope
This holistic and integrated approach is also reflected in its geographic scope. The Journal embraces the entire Spanish territory as well as studies at an international level, based on an understanding that historical heritage is grounded on a concept of general interest which should not be interpreted narrowly within the scope of the inevitable administrative and jurisdictional limits. Given that heritage protection is a matter of social interest, its manifestation through citizen initiatives also occupies a relevant role in the publication, thereby contributing to the dynamic social construction of historical heritage.
The Journal includes studies and experiences covering the full spectrum of heritage protection actions from both a current and historical perspective. It considers historical heritage as a diachronous and constantly evolving concept, drawing on the contributions of each period to generate a dynamic historical construction with a social relevance that urges its future continuation. We therefore pay close attention to changes, trends and new developments in all areas of heritage protection.
One of the hallmarks of erph is its electronic format, which we seek to exploit fully through features such as content renewal typical of other scientific publications and use of new technologies to provide links of all kinds in articles, and also in terms of accessibility and visibility.
The aim of all the above is to achieve the maximum possible impact, the greatest possible number of readers and the widest possible scientific recognition for the publications by our authors.
