In July 2021, Liverpool was removed from the prestigious List of World Heritage Sites, sending shockwaves around the global heritage community. More recently, the spotlight has shifted to another world famous site also located in the United Kingdom. During the same 44th Session of the World Heritage Committee, UNESCO threatened to place Stonehenge on the List in Danger if the required changes to a significant billion-pound road enhancement project were not implemented. Given what happened in Liverpool, there are fears that Stonehenge is in danger of moving towards delisting. An interesting critical line of inquiry to emerge from Liverpool, and other World Heritage Sites, concerns the local, national, and international ‘politics at the site’. This article develops this debate by analysing the role of different scalar actors involved in the Stonehenge World Heritage Site. More specifically, our article examines how the Stonehenge Alliance sought to engage in, what we define as, scalar manoeuvres that is evidenced by scale jumping and scalar alignments with more powerful players further up the heritage hierarchy in order to effect leverage over the future status of the World Heritage Site.

“…Neplanuoti miesto plėtros pokyčiai, naujos architektūros koncentracija ir, dažnu atveju, saugomoje teritorijoje arba jos apsaugos zonose rekomenduojamo aukštingumo viršijimas yra tiesioginė grėsmė UNESCO Pasaulio paveldui. 2004 m. į Pasaulio paveldo sąrašą įrašytas Liverpulio centras ir uosto dokai 2012 m. dėl planuojamos didelio ir plataus masto neigiamo poveikio saugomai vietovei turėsiančios "Liverpool Waters" plėtros buvo įtrauktas į Pavojuje esančio pasaulio paveldo sąrašą (Boland et al,2022), o 2021 m., padėčiai nesikeičiant, išbrauktas ir vis dar netekęs Pasaulio paveldo vietovės statuso (UNESCO World Heritage..., 2021). Nemažą įtaką ir didelį spaudimą darantis verslo sektorius dažnai gali nulemti miesto plėtros sprendimus, pagrįstus tik ekonominiais faktoriais, veiksmingumu, ignoruojant kultūrines ir socialines vietos vertes, todėl sukuriamas vienpusišką požiūrį atstovaujantis ir Pasaulio paveldo objektui pavojų keliantis precedentas.…”

The paper provides an in-depth analysis of the concept of outstanding universal value of world heritage sites, which is the supporting category of the entire system of protection of unique natural sites. The paper considers the normative basis for the definition of this concept in the Convention for the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage, the Guidelines for its implementation, the practice of the World Heritage Committee and the acts of its advisory bodies. The tripartite division of the composition of outstanding universal value is critically analyzed and the reasons for its appearance are highlighted. Methods of formalizing the analyzed concept are explored, shortcomings in the formulation of wordings of outstanding universal value are highlighted, and various ways to improve this institution are proposed. The comparative legal method of research is widely used: all the problems discussed in the paper are illustrated by the current law enforcement practice of the World Heritage Committee in reviewing the state of conservation of unique natural objects located in foreign countries. The results obtained are compared with the problems of protecting Russian World Natural Heritage sites.
