Abstract

Le patrimoine ne se pense plus simplement comme un héritage mais aussi comme développement économique et identitaire des territoires. Cette dynamique constitue un enjeu important, en particulier pour les régions périphériques des grands pôles, qui tentent en dépit de leurs difficultés économiques ou démographiques de faire valoir leur attractivité. Cet ouvrage examine les processus de la valorisation des territoires consécutive à cette patrimonialisation et présente une sélection de textes issus du colloque "Patrimoine culturel et désirs de territoire" qui s'est tenu à l'université de Nïmes les 24-27 février 2010, à l'initiative de l'équipe CNRS Acteurs-Ressources-Territoires dans le développement.

Abstract

Despite representing a fairly small fraction of global tourism activity, the cruise sector has been experiencing a steady growth rate over the last years. The 1st International Cruise Conference (ICC) and its proceedings documented here face the changes which accompany this process of growth. The corresponding refereed papers are organized under the following themes: New trends and innovations, human resource management, information technology and standardization. The underlying motivation behind this collection of works is to bridge the gap between cruise theory and practice, by providing a ‘living research agenda’ aligned with the cruise sector’s realities and needs.

Abstract

The contributors to 'International Tourism' reconceptualize the local and the global, avoiding such crude oppositions as centre v. periphery, modern v. traditional, macro v. micro and North v. South. Instead, they demonstrate that the local cannot be understood without the global, and that the global can never be isolated from the regional setting within which it operates.

Abstract

Tourism is a major part of the contemporary experience economy, in which food plays an important role. Food is a key part of all cultures, a major element of global intangible heritage and an increasingly important attraction for tourists. The linkages between food and tourism also provide a platform for local economic development, which can be strengthened by the use of food experiences for branding and marketing destinations. One of the major challenges in the experience economy is dealing with the shift towards intangible culture and heritage.  The focus of many tourists has changed from the classic 'must see' physical sights such as museums and monuments towards a ‘must-experience’ imperative to consume intangible expressions of culture, such as atmosphere, creativity and lifestyle.  This provides new opportunities for tourism destinations as well as new challenges, particularly in the areas of experience development, marketing and branding. This publication provides an understanding of the role of food tourism in local economic development and its potential for country branding. It also presents several innovative case studies in the food tourism sector and the experience industry.
