Dedicated to the medina in the Mediterranean space, this book is essentially based on detailed historical and photographic research into the characteristics of city design and its evolution, as well as some case studies from direct experience. The main objective of the present study consists of its documentary and evocative value, without forgetting the analysis of the multiple architectural spaces with monumental complexes of extraordinary cultural importance arranged according to precise hierarchies and specific uses. The research summarises the different experiences from this immense Arab-Muslim architectural heritage and its urban evolution. These aspects are expressed both by the large number of case studies (from Cordoba to Palermo, passing through Fez, Séfrou, Marrakech and Tunis) as well as by the quality of the built spaces as a whole. The several contributions show an urban framework that is still legible and significant, consisting of grids of houses with forms, structures and functions that show a concentration of spaces, places and monuments stratified over time and developed in the Mediterranean countries, producing extremely diverse situations.

A cidade-atração investiga os programas e projetos que, a partir dos anos 1990, incorporaram o patrimônio de cidades brasileiras como um ativo urbano destinado a contribuir para a transformação de quadros de desvalorização econômica e de uso e apropriação popular. Com base em processos deflagrados nas áreas centrais de Salvador, Rio de Janeiro e São Paulo, busca compreender os sentidos subjacentes à proliferação e à banalização de práticas preservacionistas e apontar outras possibilidades socialmente mais significativas de uso do patrimônio urbano.

Comment les sociétés contemporaines « habitent-elles » les lieux, les sites, les monuments qu'elles constituent en patrimoine ? Comment investissent-elles le cadre matériel auquel elles attribuent une valeur patrimoniale et dans lequel elles sont, tout produire ? Autre question : que peuvent nous apprendre les modalités avec lesquelles les groupes sociaux réinvestissent les lieux patrimoniaux sur les rapports que ceux-ci entretiennent avec l'espace ? C'est à ces questions que cherchent à répondre les textes de trente-sept auteurs (des géographes, des sociologues, des historiens, des ethnologues) réunis dans cet ouvrage. Habiter le patrimoine explore ainsi la multitude des rapports que l'Homme tisse avec ses spatialités patrimoniales, les expressions de l'habiter, les pratiques qui s'y attachent, les contraintes qui y sont liées, les conflits générés ou le potentiel qui s'en dégage... dans le contexte de la société du début du XIXe siècle.

L’idée qu’on se fait généralement de Quito, capitale de l’Équateur se réfère à une ville hispano-américaine de haute montagne, dont le patrimoine urbain est exceptionnel : rien de plus. Or ce patrimoine est aussi le centre d’une métropole actuelle. Sa bourgeoisie l’a délaissé pour les nouveaux quartiers qui se sont construits au nord de la ville moderne. Seules, désormais, les petites gens y ont leur demeure. Ils en sont par nécessité les nouveaux conquérants. La lecture et l’analyse de la cité ancienne présentée ici mettent en évidence la force de cette transformation et la manière dont ces nouveaux occupants y vivent et s’en approprient l’usage. Le Quito hispanique fondé en 1534 n’est vraiment entré dans la modernité qu’au début du XXe siècle. Son ouverture au reste du monde se concrétisa fortement à partir de 1908 avec l’arrivée du chemin de fer. Le Centre Historique actuel, constitué de la ville des années 1900, a changé de résidants, d’usagers et de chalands. Cet ouvrage se propose de le considérer précisément, afin de déterminer s’il s’agit d’un ensemble de quartiers obsolètes, condamnés à échéance prévisible à changer de fonction, voire à être mis entre parenthèses comme une enclave historique définitivement muséifiée ; ou bien s’il constitue un élément significatif de la réalité quiténienne contemporaine. Cette question préoccupe les responsables de la gestion spatiale et sociale de la capitale équatorienne, surtout depuis que cette portion de la ville a été inscrite à l’inventaire du patrimoine mondial, sous l’égide de l’Unesco, en 1978. Karine Peyronnie et René de Maximy, qui ont longuement séjourné à Quito, ont observé les populations dans leurs travaux et leurs jours, rencontré les gestionnaires, arpenté inlassablement les rues, les ruelles et les places, interrogé des centaines de citadins.

Landscape is central to tourism. It is key to the development, marketing/promotion, and consumption of tourism destinations, to triggering and sustaining tourism markets, and to enticing tourist dreams, fantasies, and behaviors. From ‘sight-seeing’ practices—at the basis of all tourism activities—landscape figures prominently all the way to the overall spatial planning and management of a destination for tourism development. The intertwined relationship between tourism and landscape comes with a series of costs and benefits, in the context of tourism landscapes. Landscapes of tourism reflect and stage recreational trends, multifunctional livelihood systems, conflicts and opportunities for employment and income generation, as well as human, cultural, and natural resource management and use. This Special Issue aims to enhance the interdisciplinary scientific dialogue on these issues and challenges, while highlighting their range and significance for tourism and the landscape, in terms of theory, empirical practice, approach, policy, ethics, and future prospects. Some of the questions posed for consideration here are: What are landscapes of tourism, for whom and how/why? What is the role of the landscape in tourism promotion, attraction, and experience? How does tourism affect the landscape? What lessons do the history and geography of tourism have to offer to tourism landscape stewardship? How may we best plan for and manage the landscape in the context of various forms of tourism growth and spread, at various scales? Scholarly advances in the past few decades have steadily built on a diverse—but spread-out and not adequately connected—bibliographical basis for future research. Much remains to be understood and exchanged as landscape and tourism—two highly complex and multifaceted scientific areas—come together in the scope of this Special Issue in a variety of ways across time, space, and culture.
