Description:This book addresses the question: What does 'heritage' mean in the 21st century? Traditional ideas of heritage involve places where objects, landscapes, people and ideas are venerated and reproduced over time as an inheritance for future generations. However, such uses of the past do not fit with the wide range of phenomena now claimed as 'heritage' for tourism purposes such as culinary tourism, ecotourism, cultural tourism and religious tourism, socially constructed specifically for economic gain through tourism. This book therefore furthers understanding on how heritage is socially constructed; how it is created in the present, how it is 'used', interpreted and experienced within different geographic and cultural contexts, in both western & non - western settings.This significant interdisciplinary volume offers readers valuable insight into heritage creation in the context of tourism, rather than upon classic preoccupations with the notion of 'authentic heritage'.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
