This paper explores the transformation of heritage values from a critical perspective. The de-authorising conceptual shift in cultural heritage has not always been accompanied by a revitalisation of the dynamics of valorisation. To achieve the integration of multivocal discourses in sustainable preservation strategies, experts and academics need to work with methods that enable this to happen. This article presents a methodological analysis articulated through three different case studies that bring new experiences regarding the decolonisation of knowledge in the field of heritage values, addressing different aspects of the social dimension of cultural heritage. The first deals with contestation processes associated with productive winemaking traditions in the Rias Baixas, Galicia, Spain. The second case addresses the rebellious Paris of the Commune and the narratives associated with the valorisation of the traces that it has left in the city's landscape. Finally, the third case analyses the values that come into play when citizens' participation governs the transformation of an archaeological site in Barcelona. To conclude, we reflect on the idea of sustainability as a way of listening to, sharing and co-creating knowledge connected to communities.

Throughout this work, we will explore different methodologies applied for the study of the relation ship between the archaeological heritage located in public space, and the social fabric of the Gothic Quarter in Barcelona. The presence of archaeological elements confers a dialogue between the ruins and the quarter's inhabitants that different agents can use at different times. This study explores avenues to know and establish new dialogues, that value not only the cultural good in itself, but also all of its spatial context. We expose a series of ethnographic techniques and analyse the use of them in different situations. This work is framed in a political moment wherein privileged participative practices in an incipient institutionalisation of participation is understood as a tool of social empowerment. ; A lo largo de este trabajo vamos a explorar distintas metodologías que hemos aplicado para el estudio de la relación del patrimonio arqueológico ubicado en el espacio público y el tejido social del Barrio Gótico de Barcelona. La presencia de elementos arqueológicos confiere un diálogo ruina-habitante que distintos agentes pueden utilizar en distintos momentos. Este estudio explora la forma de conocer y establecer nuevos diálogos que valoricen no solo el bien cultural en sí mismo, sino todo su contexto espacial. Para ello expondremos una serie de técnicas etnográficas y analizaremos el uso de las mismas en distintas situaciones. Este se contextualiza en un momento marcado por la llegada al poder de los partidos de abajo, y una incipiente institucionalización de la participación entendida como herramienta de empoderamiento social.
