<p><i>Cultural tourism</i> remains the only book to bridge the gap between cultural tourism and arts/heritage management. Previous editions explored how heritage and tourism goals can be integrated in a management and marketing framework to produce sustainable cultural tourism. The current edition takes this further to examine cultural tourism as it encounters the shocks and disruptions of the twenty-first century. An umbrella approach to cultural tourism represents a unique feature of the book, proposing solutions to achieve an optimal outcome for all sectors. In doing so, it provides a blueprint for producing top quality, long-term cultural tourism products and experiences.</p> <p>This new edition has been completely revised and updated to reflect the important developments in the field with new sections on:</p> <ul> <li>Increasingly relevant topics including climate change, the threat of de-globalization, under- and over tourism and national mythmaking.</li> </ul> <ul> <li>Experience creation, strategic visitor management, resilience building and Indigenous rights-based tourism development.</li> <li>Ethical and satisfactory cultural tourism experience in an age of rapidly developing technology.</li> </ul> <p>Written by experts in both tourism and cultural heritage management, this book will enable professionals and students to gain a better understanding of their own and each other's roles in achieving exceptional cultural tourism practices.</p>
