Citizen Science in Maritime Archaeology: Terminology, Theory, and Infrastructure (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780813079400)

Exploring the changing meanings and future development
of public engagement in maritime heritage research

Building on the practical case
studies presented in Citizen Science in Maritime Archaeology: The Power
of Public Engagement, this second volume delves into evolving
definitions and applications of citizen science, offering fresh insights into
community engagement, research ethics, and inclusivity.
Through
new case studies, Citizen Science in Maritime Archaeology: Terminology,
Theory, and Infrastructure demonstrates what citizen science means for
communities: it can foster a preservation ethic and enable community members to
contribute to research that informs policy change on topics as diverse as
climate change and maritime tourism. These chapters also address the theoretical
underpinnings and inclusive potential of citizen participation and suggest public-focused
research strategies for future projects.

Each chapter's thorough and
actionable analysis of actual projects encourages readers to consider
shortcomings in the ways citizen science is conducted and to reflect on how the
practice can be adapted or updated within the field of maritime archaeology. This
volume is a valuable resource for professionals, scholars, students, and volunteers
interested in the transformative potential of citizen science.
