"The transmission and related perception of the message(s) as a main component in valuing, preserving and using the Cultural Heritage remains in the framework of the Quality Management of Cultural Heritage©: the Outstanding Universal Value and the European Heritage Label in the context of the present challenges"

"I am not interested in a 'European Heritage', it seems a projection that doesn't exist. I am interested in local, regional differences, I am interested in the history that led to these differences. May be I am not interested in relations between the USA and Italy, when they try to build the basis for recognizing a 'EU Identity' aimed to build a 'EU allied'. This is why I feel the EU artificial, eventually (temporarily) functioning as an economic or strategic space, rather than a reality built by history". An analysis of the present appeal of UNESCO OUV and EU Heritage label in the light of Federico's declaration.
