Heritage Tourism

Produktbeschreibung

This book offers students a thorough critical examination of the unique dynamics of heritage and tourism development from both social sciences and management perspectives. It incorporates both global and local approaches in theorising and managing heritage tourism. While focusing on analysing key academic concepts including commodification, globalisation and heritage interpretation, this book also discusses topical issues such as sustainable development, management strategies and consumerism. It includes case studies of topical concerns, controversies and challenges which will encourage an understanding of the dialectical relationship between heritage and tourism development.
