The Heritage-scape: UNESCO, World Heritage, and Tourism
This book explores how the mere designation of World Heritage sites can achieve U.N.E.S.C.O.'s goal of creating lasting worldwide peace. Drawing on ethnography, policy analysis, and a sophisticated fusion of anthropological theories, Di Giovine convincingly reveals the existence of a global heritage-scape and provides a detailed yet expansive look at the politics and processes, histories and structures, and the rituals and symbolisms of the interrelated phenomena of tourism, historic preservation, and U.N.E.S.C.O.'s World Heritage Convention.
