The introductory study summarises the basic thesis and thematic framework of the book, which is based on a comparison of the situation of monument care in the individual Central European regions after the Second World War. Heritage conservation is one of the fields in which several types of social issues, and thus several different levels through which the nature of a particular regime at a given stage can be traced and meet in a remarkable way. The study seeks to thematise monument care in the Central European space as a useful ideological instrument across multiple regimes -often structured according to politically and ideologically motivated narratives, while providing a convenient support for these narratives. However, heritage conservation is also a professional discipline, combining a humanistic, cultural-historical basis with a range of other humanities and natural science expertise. The study points out that despite many similarities, heritage conservation within the Eastern Bloc has in many ways created very different worlds, due to the different continuity of the field in each region.
