Populaire passages
Pagina 248 - The Community shall contribute to the flowering of the cultures of the Member States, while respecting their national and regional diversity and at the same time bringing the common cultural heritage to the fore.
Pagina 177 - States, on the other hand, are everywhere seeking to monopolize the moral resources of community, either by flatly claiming perfect coevality between nation and state, or by systematically museumizing and representing all the groups within them in a variety of heritage politics that seems remarkably uniform throughout the world (Handler 1988; Herzfeld 1982; McQueen 1988).
Pagina 194 - What does seem clear is that it is not helpful to regard the global and local as dichotomies separated in space or time; it would seem that the processes of globalization and localization are inextricably bound together in the current phase.
Pagina 179 - ... so we have to learn how to cope with an overwhelming sense of compression of our spatial and temporal worlds.
Pagina 16 - The whole life of those societies in which modern conditions of production prevail presents itself as an immense accumulation of spectacles. All that was once directly lived has become mere representation
Pagina 16 - Leiper (1990: 178) introduces the following definition of a tourist attraction as 'a system comprising three elements: a tourist or human element, a nucleus or central element, and a marker or informative element. A tourist attraction comes into existence when the three elements are interconnected'.
Pagina 216 - The movement of persons to cultural attractions away from their normal place of residence, with the intention to gather new information and experiences to satisfy their cultural needs.
Pagina 112 - Association, from one which focused primarily on processes and collections ('an institution which collects, documents, preserves, exhibits and interprets material evidence and associated information for the public benefit') to one which stresses outcomes and audiences: 'Museums enable people to explore collections for inspiration, learning and enjoyment.
Pagina 181 - The qualities of place stand thereby to be emphasized in the midst of the increasing abstractions of space. The active production of places with special qualities becomes an important stake in spatial competition between localities, cities, regions, and nations.
Pagina 17 - The new means of consumption can be seen as "cathedrals of consumption" — that is, they have an enchanted, sometimes even sacred, religious character for many people.30 In order to attract ever-larger numbers of consumers, such cathedrals of consumption need to offer, or at least appear to offer, increasingly magical, fantastic, and enchanted settings in which to consume.
