Book Description
Heritage tourism is tied to myth making and stories; creative content that can be shared, stored, combined and manipulated, but that depends on a unique cultural or natural history. A significant section of the wider phenomenon that is cultural tourism, heritage tourism is a demand-driven industry that continues to be a subject of heated debate in academic circles. Beginning with an overview of the subject, this book considers the conservation and revitalization of heritage destinations, as well as the role local communities have in supporting an attraction. It then discusses product development and communication around the world, using new techniques such as social media and examples from food tourism and sporting events, before a final section reviews the planning and institutionalisation of heritage spaces. A timely conclusion subsequently considers the implications of developments such as globalisation, technological improvement and climate change upon these unique destinations. A valuable addition to the literature, this book is the first to bridge the gap between theory and practice, including the latest research and international case studies for researchers and practitioners in tourism and destination management.

Book Description
De plus en plus souvent, la valorisation de son patrimoine apparaît, pour un territoire, comme l'un des moyens d'accroître son développement économique et social. Or, le patrimoine, construit social lié à l'histoire de chaque société, est le résultat d'un processus complexe de patrimonialisation. Ce dernier prend des formes très diverses selon les territoires, tout comme l'ensemble des processus qui permettent leur développement humain. Dès lors, analyser la relation existant entre le patrimoine et le développement suppose de tenir compte de la grande diversité de ces deux phénomènes. Pour tenter d'appréhender les points essentiels de la relation qui les unit, il est donc important de varier tout à la fois les approches disciplinaires et les terrains d'observation. C'est ce que s'efforce de réaliser cet ouvrage en étudiant les liens entre patrimoine et développement tour à tour dans des pays d'Afrique, d'Asie et d'Europe selon les approches de disciplines aussi variées que l'anthropologie, l'économie, l'histoire de l'art... Ce sont ces regards croisés qui permettent de proposer quelques éléments de synthèse caractérisant cette relation entre patrimoine et développement.
