Celem przedmiotu jest ukazanie szerokiej panoramy poglądów na konserwatorskie interpretacje dziedzictwa kulturowego w instytucjach GLAM oraz dostarczenie informacji niezbędnych do zajęcia własnego stanowiska w kwestii rozstrzygania o przydatności poszczególnych teorii. W ramach przedmiotu omawiane są nowoczesne koncepcje działalności konserwatorskiej. Szczególną uwagę zwraca się na różnorodność sposobów określania przedmiotu i zasad działalności konserwatorskiej w dokumentach międzynarodowych organizacji konserwatorskich (zbiory ogólne, specjalne ,zabezpieczone). Analizowane są także następstwa zintegrowania działań na rzecz ochrony dziedzictwa kulturowego i naturalnego. Przedstawione zostaną również pozytywne i negatywne zjawiska związane z globalizacją idei ochrony dziedzictwa i dążeniami do uniwersalizacji zasad postępowania konserwatorskiego.
