While for many people remembrance tourism involves revisiting events linked to war, it also covers less tragic moments, simply related to history. In certain cases, we can even refer to this as "roots tourism", when the sites visited are more or less closely entwined with family history. Roots tourism often concerns descend- ants of populations that have migrated, whether voluntarily or not. This is the case of people from Auvergne, who have formed a significant diaspora outside their region of origin. By taking as an example the Scénomusée The Toinette's House, which presents the daily life of a fictional Auvergne peasant in the 19th century, we try to understand how remembrance is mobilized in tourism and to identify the emotions and perceptions involved in remembrance and roots tourism.

This article examines the discourse of diasporic tourism around the 2019 World Acadian Congress, held in New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island (Canada). These Congrès mondiaux are an opportunity to bring together members of the Acadian diaspora, an ethnic and linguistic minority from Eastern Canada scattered across several regions of North America and around the world. In particular, we examine the lived experiences of members of a delegation from Louisiana as they "return" to the land of their ancestors. The processes of diasporic identification to which their interviews testify are based on "moments" when memory and geographical distance are erased during heritage visits, on the recognition of doxical elements of a shared identity that allows one to feel at home with the other, and on the desire to transform the symbolic ties that unite the diaspora into transnational economic partnerships.

The purpose of the study was to determine the methods of successful management plan in cultural heritage sites. In addition to that, the research task was to clarification the nexus between cultural heritage and sustainable economic development in an operational and empirical manner. In the empirical part of the study, the main concern was finding out how to merge the cultural heritage sites in economic development projects for the local economy development. The methodology adopted for this study involved an innovative combination of economic and social assessment techniques. Economic assessment techniques applied included value analysis of cultural heritage sites. The study showed the culture heritage plays a significant role in the regeneration and development of local and regional areas. Contrary to expectations, the results indicated the great relationship between cultural heritage and socio-economic development to develop regional and local economy. Consistent to earlier research the study supported the hypothesis that using cultural heritage in local economic development projects. The results can be applied to cultural heritage sites and tourist destinations. Further study is required to investment of cultural heritage sites to achieve socioeconomic development.

Drawing on fieldwork research during 2004-2006 in Oliveto Citra, a small town near Salerno, this paper explores the conflicts that arise out of local actors struggle over growing control on religious tourism, related to the apparitional shrine, and hertitage tourism, related to the Archaeological Museum. The economical and political strategies of local élites produced the émotions patrimoniales that contest the right of the holy Virgin, Regina del Castello, to be the primary icon of local identity.

This paper explores the meanings of the local expression fer barri (neighbourhood making) in a gentrifying area located in the Historic Centre of Ciutat de Mallorca (Spain). After closely examining the relation of fer barri with tourism in Mallorca, I analyse the tensions between the urban planning schemes unleashed by the public authorities upon this heritage-loaded territory and the practices of its inhabitants. I argue that the concept of neighbourhood scaling best accounts for the social relations that this sub-urban context embodies, given the hierarchy of forces impinging on it (urban, regional, national, global). Urban policy plans and organised residents scale the neighbourhood in conflictual terms. Some follow a tourism-dependent logic and try to promote the neighbourhood along the lines of heritage, its centrality or by setting up large events. In addition to State-led policies, tourism businesses and real estate enterprises, urban movements often depicted as oppositional groups have their own understanding of fer barri. This is an understanding of contradictory kind since in their attempts to contest capital accumulation by placing a value on the neighbourhood, urban movements can also unintentionally pave the way for both renewal and gentrification. A thorough analysis of the local term fer barri therefore reveals contrasting projects of neighbourhood scaling.Este artigo explora os significados da expressão local fer barri (fazer o bairro) numa zona em processo de nobilitação no centro histórico da Cidade de Maiorca (Espanha). Após um exame detalhado da relação entre o fer barri e o turismo em Maiorca, são aqui analisadas as tensões entre os programas de planeamento urbano lançados pelas autoridades públicas sobre este território rico em património e, por outro lado, as práticas dos seus habitantes. Defendo que o conceito de “configuração da escala do bairro” é o que melhor se adequa às relações sociais a que este contexto urbano local dá forma, dada a hierarquia de forças (locais, regionais, nacionais e globais) a que está sujeito. Programas de intervenção urbana e organizações de residentes definem a escala do bairro de formas incompatíveis. Alguns seguem uma lógica dependente do turismo e procuram promover o bairro destacando o seu património ou a sua centralidade, ou ainda pela realização de grandes eventos. Paralelamente às políticas estatais, aos negócios turísticos e às empresas imobiliárias, também alguns movimentos urbanos, frequentemente retratados como grupos de oposição, mantêm noções próprias sobre o que significa fer barri. Esta coincidência é contraditória, uma vez que, no seu esforço de valorização do bairro como forma de contestação da acumulação de capital, estes movimentos urbanos podem involuntariamente abrir caminho à sua renovação e à sua nobilitação. Deste modo, a análise exaustiva da expressão local fer barri revela projectos contrastantes de configuração da escala do bairro.

Despite of tourism in Historical and Heritage Sites are a very old phenomenon and one of the first tourism activities realize by the society, however the role of this redeem in the social and economical transformation of urban spaces are scanty studied, and for these reason we need to develop a methodological and theoretical basis for the supporting the fast increase of tourism in Heritage Cities especially in Old Havana, Cuba, using also some indexes to understand the changes in the urban area under the pressure of new forms of tourism

The market for selling experiences and products influenced by various connotations of the past is continuously increasing. Guidebooks play a role in introducing cultural history to a growing tourist market. A study of four European cultural historic guidebooks draws attention to some of the differences that appear in the way national heritage assets are presented. The analysis reveals that guidebooks are more restricted in representation form and writing genre than initially presumed. By choosing a representation form dominated by a cartographic style of writing, where factual information play a dominant role, the text in the guidebooks leaves the reader in the role of a distanced observer. It is primarily via the illustrations that the heritage assets act as a scene for contemplation, involvement or for adventure. The material is interpreted within a framework that draws attention to the interaction that takes place between the representations of the past and contemporary society.

The main purpose of the present article is to analyze the dimensions of cultural tourism in the context of its future leading position on the global tourism market. The author defines the terms as culture, heritage and cultural tourism. Attention is paid to the so-called "built heritage" which is related to the preservation of monuments and historical building in a long term. The author focuses on the synergy between culture and tourism which is pointed out as strong economic engine for many destinations. The diversity of the cultural tourism is explained by types of resources. Moreover, the principles of cultural tourism, benefits and impacts are stated out. Special emphasis is placed on the rich historical heritage and cultural diversity of Bulgaria as a cultural destination. The role of the cultural tourism on the world tourism scene is proved.

The article discusses the concept of authenticity and the authentic self, in relation to the visits of Quebecois tourists to heritage sites in Tunisia. Topics include the relationship of the object's authenticity to that of the experience, the remoteness in space and time of the ruins, and the relationship between the tourists and the place, as mediated by the tourist experience.

The article discusses Polish patrimonial visits to Polish national monuments as a phenomena at the intersection between politics and tourism. Topics include the culture which develops around tourism and visits to national monuments, the question of authenticity of monuments and commemorations of those monuments, and the question of how to produce relationships between visitors and national monument sites.

The guest editor reflects on ways in which cultural tourism plays a role in providing a global context for the cultural and national heritage of places. She comments on the relationship between visual arts and material culture, describes how cultural activity helps to form national identities, and explores how narration can be used as a tool to preserve the history of tourist attractions.

After discussing the relationship between heritage and tradition, this text deals with the complex process of assigning meaning to heritage, to objects, places and sociocultural practices. Tourism is seen as a powerful means of enhancing the emotional significance of such objects, places and practices. The current pursuit of emotional experience leads to an intense exploration of memory tourism, as well as dark and reality tourism. The different modes through which these experiences are perceived signal a social dispute over meanings, including postcolonial tourist narratives. Today's valorization of psycho-emotional tourist experiences suggests the possibility of a worldwide increase in tourist supply of a strong emotional kind. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
