evidence
The regional imbalance in the World Heritage List did not decrease following the 1994 Global Strategy and may have increased; Europe and North America remain home to close to half of all World Heritage sites, and as of 2004 some 55 per cent of cultural and mixed properties. The authors argue the persistent over-representation undermines the credibility of the List. ALSO: Reviews the first decade of the Global Strategy adopted by the World Heritage Committee in 1994, whose objectives were to balance cultural against natural properties, to broaden representation across regions and levels of development, and to widen the thematic definition of heritage beyond monumental architecture.
