global tourism cultural heritage and economic encounters

Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Anthropology

Valerio Simoni

Tourism affects the lives of an increasing number of people across the world and has been growing and diversifying immensely since the turn of the 21st century. Anthropological approaches to tourism have also expanded from the early contributions of the 1970s, which tended to focus on the nature of tourism and its “impact” on peripheral host communities. These first interventions see anthropologists theorizing tourism as a “secular ritual,” studying its workings as a process of “acculturation,” and countering macroeconomic views of tourism’s potential for the economic development of peripheral societies by underscoring instead its neocolonial and imperialist features. Tourism is linked to the exacerbation of center-periphery dependencies, seen as an agent of cultural commoditization and responsible for the promotion and dissemination of stereotypical images of people and places. Moving beyond the impact paradigm, which has the disadvantage of portraying tourism as an external, disembedded, and imposed force on a passive population, constructivist approaches highlight its creative appropriations and integral role in the reinvention of culture and traditions. Anthropologists pay attention to the varied range of actors and agencies involved in tourism, accounting for the multi-scalar dimensions of this phenomenon and the uneven circulation of images, discourses, and resources it engenders. Tourism exerts a powerful global influence on how alterity and difference are framed and understood in the contemporary world and contributes to the valorization and dissemination of particular views of culture, identity, and heritage. Tourism is increasingly intertwined with processes of heritage-making, whose study helps advance anthropological reflections on cultural property, material culture, and the memorialization of the past. A key source of livelihood for a growing number of people worldwide, tourism is also becoming more and more associated with development projects in which applied anthropologists are also enrolled as experts and consultants. The study of the tourism-development nexus continues to be a key area of theoretical innovation and has helped advance anthropological debates on North–South relations, dominant responses to poverty and inequality, and their entanglements with neoliberal forms of governance. Given its diffuse and distributed character, tourism and touristification have been approached as forms of ordering that affect and restructure an ever-growing range of entities, and whose effects are increasingly difficult to tease out from concomitant societal processes. The ubiquitous implementations of tourism policies and projects, the influx of tourists, and the debates, reactions, and resistances these generate underscore, however, the importance of uncovering the ways tourism and its effects are being concretely identified, invoked, acted upon, and confronted by its various protagonists. Research on tourism has the potential to contribute to disciplinary debates on many key areas and notions of concern for anthropology. Culture, ethnicity, identity, alterity, heritage, mobility, labor, commerce, hospitality, intimacy, development, and the environment are among the notions and domains increasingly affected and transformed by tourism. The study of tourism helps understand how such transformations occur, uncovering their features and orientations, while also shedding light on the societal struggles that are at stake in them. The analysis of past and current research shows the scope of the theoretical and methodological debates and of the realms of intervention to which anthropological scholarship on tourism can contribute.

As a mode of travel, interaction, and experience, tourism has become an integral part of all societies, eliciting poignant, complex responses. The course will go through interactions and mobilities to examine the categories and meanings by which tourism impacts people’s lives. While we are maintaining a Hawaiian, Pacific Island focus, case studies are taken from around the world in particular from Europe to explore the social, ethical, cultural, semiotic and ecological outcomes of such touristic processes, including the psycho-cultural motivations, and issues related to globalization, economic development, cross-cultural communication, ethnicity, nationalism and gender. Tourism is a uniquely situated prism through which we can examine a fascinating range of issues such as cultural representation, identity, space/place, embodiment, development, inequality, globalization and cultural and environmental change. This stacked course offers students an opportunity to critically examine these contexts primarily using theoretical frameworks from anthropology, geography, and cultural studies. ANTH 316 Highlights 1) writing-intensive; 2) weekly blogs; 3) zero-textbook-cost. In addition to theorizing tourism practice, the participation of graduate students in this stacked course will allow undergraduate students to consider these issues in relation to ethnographic fieldwork—the cornerstone of cultural geography and anthropology—and the study of touristic phenomena. Graduate students not just will act as mentors to undergraduates and facilitate discussions throughout the semester but will be presenting to the class their ethnographic research project on a topic related to their interests. ANTH 610 Highlights 1) ethnographic research; 2) critical précis; and 3) peer-reviewed academic publishing.

Tourism Analysis

Arianne Reis

Nature-based tourism activities are highly modulated by how Nature has been constructed in modern Western societies. The way we have come to perceive what is "other-than-human" impacts on how we engage with, and experience, a location, a place, or a tourism space that is based on/around the natural world. This review discusses how this construct has been formulated by different social scientists and philosophers, and how these constructions impact on nature-based tourism experiences in contemporary societies. In this review article, Reis and Shelton argue that in order to advance and refine our understandings of nature-based tourism practices, tourism scholars need to acknowledge, or, better, explore, how the different meanings attached to "nature," or the different "natures" constructed by societies, intervene and sometimes dictate tourism practices and experiences. Likewise, practices and experiences in tourism management/development provide an ever-changing context of human-nature relationships that highlight the worldmaking agency of tourism. Here, Reis and Shelton conclude by inviting scholars in Tourism Studies/Tourism Sciences to incorporate notions of embodiment, interagentivity, and indigenous perspectives, among others, into their discussions and analysis of nature-based tourism.

UNESCO presents progress on sustainable tourism and intangible heritage project in Latin America and the Caribbean

UNESCO

The 3-year project strengthens the cooperation between cultural, tourism and urban development sectors towards more sustainable tourism practices, as well as better safeguarding of intangible cultural heritage in urban contexts. Generously supported by the Ministry of Culture of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, a total of 10 countries in the region benefits from the ongoing efforts: Belize, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua and Panama.

During the discussion at its Headquarters in Paris, France, UNESCO presented the various undergoing activities, including the workshop ‘World Heritage and Sustainable Tourism: Enhancing visitor management and community engagement’ to take place in June 2024 in Oaxaca, Mexico.

‘This landmark project creates meaningful synergies between tangible and intangible heritage. Through an integrated approach, we aim to unlock the potential of cultural tourism for sustainable livelihoods with communities firmly in the driving seat’ said Ernesto Ottone R., Assistant Director-General for Culture of UNESCO. 

Abel Abdiel Aronátegui Vivies, coordinator of the Central American Integration System (CECC/SICA) which serves as the regional implementation partner, emphasised the importance of visitor management in World Heritage sites and safeguarding intangible cultural heritage in urban contexts. Praising the inclusive approach, he said ‘The footprints of those who journeyed together are never wiped away.’

Representatives from the above countries underlined the symbiotic relationship between World Heritage and living heritage in the region. The project thus reflects the way culture is understood, practiced and passed down over generation, in which tangible and intangible heritage are seen as one. They also thanked the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, represented by Faisal Al Omair, Advisor, Permanent Delegation of Saudi Arabia to UNESCO, for making this timely project a reality.

UNESCO

The project responds to a call made by the historic  MONDIACULT 2022 Declaration , which recognized culture as an enable for ‘context-relevant models of economic and social development’ including tourism. 

This exchange session was held in parallel with the tenth session of the General Assembly of the States Parties to the Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage.
