Raj Rhapsodies: Tourism, Heritage and the Seduction of History (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Weisgrau, Maxine; Henderson, Carol

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

With heritage a prized commodity in the marketing of tourism destinations, particular aspects of culture and history are often more actively promoted than others. This fascinating book explores the cultural politics of tourism through interdisciplinary perspectives, demonstrating that tourism heritage privileges elite histories that affect non-elites even as they advance their own visions of history.
