Abstract
This thesis provides new ways to understand preservation theory and management
objectives for industrial heritage sites by analyzing existing mechanisms for their
preservation through values and practices associated with cultural landscape preservation.
In addition to discussing the theory and development of existing preservation approaches to
cultural landscapes and industrial heritage sites, the study identifies characteristics and
values aimed at expanding the framework of historic industrial landscape preservation
practice. Using case studies of western hard-rock mining landscapes as the primary
examples, the study argues that management strategies based on traditional preservation
practices are insufficient for interpreting the complexity of these historic places, and that
historic industrial landscape preservation is best served by attending to the range of values
and processes associated with the historic landscape and its protection.
