"Cultural and Heritage Tourism Essentials" explores one of the world's most vital tourism resources—cultural heritage. This comprehensive guide provides a theoretical overview and practical knowledge of tourism-related issues, practices, debates, concepts, and management concerns.
We cover current and emerging topics such as geopolitics, conflict, tourism solidarity, over-tourism, and climate change. Additionally, key areas like environmental change, technology, social media, heritage economics, indigenous knowledge, and co-creation experiences are developed in detail.
This edition includes up-to-date data, statistics, references, case studies, metrics, and educational tools. It serves as an essential and accessible resource for undergraduate and graduate students in heritage tourism, cultural resource management, and museum management.
