Resumen

En este artículo se indaga sobre las implicaciones teóricas y prácticas de la comprensión del patrimonio como un elemento activo y creador del paisaje cultural; en concreto, como técnica espacial que desempeña un papel fundamental en el proceso biofísico y sociocultural que denominamos ecología humana. Se establecen cuatro coordenadas de análisis para apreciar y manejar la dimensión ecológica del patrimonio, entre las cuales se encuentran, junto a la variable de la originalidad material, la integridad estructural del paisaje, su continuidad funcional y su valor como representación y experiencia. Se sugieren, asimismo, tres niveles para el análisis de la estética del patrimonio: la estética del proceso técnicoecológico como tal, la memoria de la ecología urbana y la experiencia del espacio ecológico. Se recurre al análisis del proceso de restauración del patrimonio hidrológico de Hangzhou para ilustrar el uso de esta metodología para comunicar el carácter activo del patrimonio y la naturaleza dinámica del paisaje.
