This first issue of the year is a good example of the many aspects of heritage the journal touches upon, representing the range of heritage, from natural to cultural, and from tangible to intangible. Spennemann develops a conceptual understanding of an emergent heritage: robots. Gough considers the significance and value of two community gardens in London as heritage sites, highlighting the need to involve the community in decision-making.  Voase analyses the impact of a heritage site - in this case a cathedral - on the individual, making contemporary interpretation of heritage a necessity. Eiter reviews the impact of transport infrastructure on the use and the conservation of cultural and natural landscapes, focusing on the mountain areas in western Norway. The final article reports a number of case studies of war memorials in Thailand, Singapore and Vietnam.
