Description

Explore how global tourism has transformed urban landscapes and cultural heritage over two centuries in this critical examination from Routledge. From the Grand Tour to contemporary package holidays, this work traces the exponential growth of travel and its profound impact on destinations worldwide. As twenty-first century tourism intensifies, communities across the globe compete fiercely for visitor economies, often viewing tourism as vital to survival in an increasingly marginalised industrial and information economy. This book investigates the tensions between preserving local traditions and manufacturing heritage experiences for global audiences, addressing the irreversible changes mass tourism brings to authentic cultural spaces. Essential reading for students, architects, urban planners and cultural theorists seeking to understand how tourism reshapes places and communities.

Key Features

Analyses two centuries of tourism's evolution from the Grand Tour to modern package holidays and its lasting urban impact.

Examines how destination communities navigate fierce global competition by leveraging tourism as economic survival strategy.

Addresses the conflict between authentic cultural preservation and the manufacturing of heritage for mass tourism consumption.

Provides critical perspective on irreversible changes tourism inflicts on local traditions and urban forms worldwide.

Written by Routledge, a trusted publisher of architecture, theory and cultural studies scholarship.

Ideal for architecture students, urban planners, cultural theorists and tourism policy professionals.
