INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE IN MODERN INFORMATION SOCIETY PARADIGMS

Abstract

The problem of the decline of traditional industrial territories and the updating of approaches to the preservation of different categories of heritage are considered, including the industrial monuments that have become the epitome of cultural identity of the old industrial regions. The material culture of the industrial age in the context of the rapid development of the information society is regarded as a historical resource that needed to be preserved and reused, and as a new direction for the development of the tourism industry.
