Description

Explore the complex relationship between heritage and tourism in this academic study from Routledge. As part of the New Directions in Tourism Analysis series, this book examines how cultural commodities are marketed to global travelers. It looks at how specific aspects of heritage are promoted while others are minimized to create a seductive image of the past. In the context of Asia, the text analyzes the consumption of orientalized versions of culture and history. It focuses specifically on India, where the state of Rajasthan is used in marketing discourse to represent the nation through its traditional and authentic heritage. This work provides a deep look into how historical images are constructed and sold within the modern tourism market.
