Abstract: The chapter analyses the official registers of heritage institutions in Slovenia. It localises the heritage units, i.e. natural values—sites, areas, and caves, immovable cultural heritage, museums, and intangible cultural heritage by macroregion—Alpine, Pannonian, Dinaric, and Mediterranean. It discusses possible correlations between historic contexts, national imaginaries, and the eventual outstanding position of the officially registered heritage in the Alpine macroregion. It concludes on the micro- and macroscale—on overlappings and discrepancies between national registers and local heritage-making, and on some supranational heritage initiatives enabling alternative heritage futures.
The entire monograph comprises a total of 544 pages and is available at the following links, where all chapters are openly accessible: https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-031-99017-5
