Each essay discusses the past and current heritage meanings applied to a specific mission by national and multicultural states, local Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities, international heritage institutions, and scholars. They then address how heritage actors produce knowledge from their positioned perspectives; how different actors, collectives, communities, and publics relate to them; how heritage representations are deployed and contested as social facts; and how different conceptions of \"heritage\" collide, collaborate, and intersperse to produce the meanings around which heritage struggles unfold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntroduction \u003c\/b\u003e  1\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eCristóbal Gnecco and Adriana Schmidt Dias\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePart I: Alternative Readings of Heritage: Subjects, Alterization, and the Different Meanings of the Past\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Crisis of the \"Heritage Order\": Disputed Representations of the Jesuit Missions' Past   23\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eGuillermo Wilde\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Semiotic Policies in Conflict at São Miguel Arcanjo Mission (Brazil)   48\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eAdriana Schmidt Dias\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Teaching Missions, Training Citizens: The California Missions as Curriculum   65\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eElizabeth Kryder-Reid\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Native Heritage and the California Missions: A Collaborative Approach at Mission Santa Clara   88\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eLee M.
