Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comment les sociétés contemporaines « habitent-elles » les lieux, les sites, les monuments qu'elles constituent en patrimoine ? Comment investissent-elles le cadre matériel auquel elles attribuent une valeur patrimoniale et dans lequel elles sont, tout produire ? Autre question : que peuvent nous apprendre les modalités avec lesquelles les groupes sociaux réinvestissent les lieux patrimoniaux sur les rapports que ceux-ci entretiennent avec l'espace ? C'est à ces questions que cherchent à répondre les textes de trente-sept auteurs (des géographes, des sociologues, des historiens, des ethnologues) réunis dans cet ouvrage. Habiter le patrimoine explore ainsi la multitude des rapports que l'Homme tisse avec ses spatialités patrimoniales, les expressions de l'habiter, les pratiques qui s'y attachent, les contraintes qui y sont liées, les conflits générés ou le potentiel qui s'en dégage... dans le contexte de la société du début du XIXe siècle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through a thick ethnography of the Fez medina in Morocco, a World Heritage site since 1981, Manon Istasse interrogates how human beings come to define houses as heritage. Istasse interrogates how heritage appears (or not) when inhabitants undertake construction and restoration projects in their homes, furnish and decorate their spaces, talk about their affective and sensual relations with houses, face conflicts in and about their houses, and more. Shedding light on the continuum between houses-as-dwellings and houses-as-heritage, the author establishes heritage as a trajectory: heritage as a quality results from a ‘surplus of attention’ and relates to nostalgia or to a feeling of threat, loss, and disappearance; to values related to purity, materiality, and time; and to actions of preservation and transmission. Living in a World Heritage site provides a grammar of heritage that will allow scholars to question key notions of temporality and nostalgia, the idea of culture, the importance of experts, and moral principles in relation to heritage sites around the globe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’ouvrage interroge les relations au patrimoine que les habitants des villes inscrites sur la liste du patrimoine mondial de l’Unesco entretiennent dans leurs pratiques ordinaires à partir d’études de cas (France, Chili, Italie). Les contributions ici réunies discutent des enjeux théoriques et pragmatiques, liés au fait d’habiter le patrimoine urbain, en fonction du statut des habitants ou de leurs choix de fréquentation de lieux (places, commerces, rues, quartiers). Ces pratiques journalières ancrent les résidents dans des habitudes, des sociabilités, un cadre de vie et des attachements qui constituent un terrain d’enquête varié pour les chercheurs et les professionnels du patrimoine. Le livre évoque également la responsabilité des habitants en matière de développement durable, dans leurs pratiques ordinaires.

Book excerpt: Offering an original discussion of the gentrification phenomenon in Europe, this book provides new theoretical insights into classical works on the subject. Using a thorough analysis of the diversity of the forms, places and actors of gentrification in an attempt to isolate its ‘DNA’, the book addresses the place of social groups in cities, their competition over the appropriation of space, the infrastructure unequally offered to them by economic and political actors and the stakes of everyday social relationships.
Download or read book Moroccan Dreams written by Claudio Minca and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-08-02 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Morocco has long been a mythic land, firmly rooted in the European colonial imagination. For more than a century it has been appropriated by travellers, explorers, writers and artists. It is just these images and imaginings that are now being reconstructed for nostalgic consumption. In Moroccan Dreams, Claudio Minca examines this aestheticised re-enactment of the colonial, exploring the ways in which Moroccans themselves have become complicit in the re-writing of their homes and lives. Richly illustrated, the book provides a fascinating journey that will engage and delight all those enamoured of Morocco and its extraordinary geographies.
Download or read book Tourism Fictions Simulacra and Virtualities written by Maria Gravari-Barbas and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-08-28 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tourism Fictions, Simulacra and Virtualities offers a new understanding of tourism’s interaction with space, questioning the ways in which fictions, simulacra and virtualities express tourism in the built environment and vice versa. Since its beginnings, tourism has inspired themed built environments that have a constitutive, and sometimes problematic, relationship with the “real” world and its architectural references. This volume questions and rethinks the different environments constructed or adapted both for and by tourism exploring the relationship between the “real” and the “unreal” within the tourist bubble and the ways in which the real world inspires simulacra for tourism use. Adopting an interdisciplinary approach this book touches on a wide range of geographical areas, eras and subjects such as post-socialist tourism in Poland, the Hawaiian imaginary in Las Vegas, Rio de Janeiro’s Little Africa, as well as multiple instances of virtual reality in tourism. This timely and innovative volume will be of great interest to upper level students, researchers and academics in tourism, architecture, cultural studies, geography and heritage studies.
Download or read book Hybrid Mobilities written by Nadine Cattan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-07-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diverse factors like globalization, geopolitical tensions, and the transformation of lifestyles are strengthening the role of mobility as a structuring dimension of contemporary societies. Social-science research has taken note of these changes, but few studies cross the different forms of mobility, ranging from commuting to tourists and backpackers, and on to seasonal workers or international migrants. The diversity of mobility situations studied in this book highlights the contribution of the reality of mobility in the daily construction of urban, regional, and global spaces, as well as in the redefinition of socio-spatial concepts. By using an interdisciplinary relational approach, the book revisits certain concepts such as exclusion, heritage, or distance, in order to understand spatialities beyond the oppositions of fixity/mobility, private/public, or here/elsewhere. The book sheds light on the capacities for resistance of mobile persons in Singapore, Dakar, Bangkok, Amman, Paris, New York, or Mexico by studying the power relationships that are established in situations of mobility. By deciphering the values that characterize regimes of (im)mobility, the contributors stress the normative injunctions of public policies and social practices. The originality of the work lies in capturing the deployment of alternative spatialities and underlining how they are reshaped between sedentary and mobility regimes. It highlights the importance of fully associating mobility with its characteristics of ephemerality and fluidity, in our theorizations and understandings of spatialities. By taking a post-structuralist posture, the book makes it possible to establish a logic of ‘and’ to design a ‘between’ of things, and to reverse ontology. This allows the temporary and the connected to be rehabilitated, beyond distance, in our practical knowledge of spatialities and territorialities. As such, the volume will be of interest to scholars of geography, sociology, anthropology, and urban studies with interests in mobility, migration and relational thought.
Download or read book Le patrimoine habit written by Philippe Gueissaz and published by EPFL Press. This book was released on 2013-12-19 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le patrimoine habité est un concept qui s’applique à tout type de bâtiment qui a fait l’objet d’une réaffectation – ferme, atelier, petite usine, villa, école. Cette démarche de transformation est généralement assortie d’une dimension de sauvegarde, mais les implications socioéconomiques et culturelles qui la sous-tendent dépassent largement le seul principe de conservation. C’est à cette problématique riche et complexe que s’attache ce Cahier de théorie. La restauration, dans le sens de sauvegarde de monuments historiques, n’est pas le sujet abordé ici: les auteurs s’interrogent plutôt, dans une vision prospective et dynamique, sur les stratégies d’adaptation du bâti aux besoins contemporains, tout en tenant compte de sa substance historique et morphologique. Une manière de penser l’architecture particulièrement attentive à l’influence de l’âme de ces constructions sur le projet de transformation, et au relevé des traces induites par les usages. A titre d’illustration, la seconde partie de l’ouvrage décrit quelques réalisations de l’architecte Philippe Gueissaz, qui a consacré une grande partie de son activité à transformer des maisons dans le Jura vaudois, ce territoire qui a subi, au cours du XXe siècle, des mutations importantes et qui, de fait, contient dans son domaine bâti une quantité importante de bâtiments faisant partie du patrimoine architectural.
Download or read book Landscape and Sustainable Development written by Yves Luginbühl and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previously published in French by Éditions Quae, this volume presents findings of a major research programme into landscape and sustainable development. While led by French scholars, the research team and geographical scope of the project was international, collaborative and comparative. Using case studies from across Europe, the interdisciplinary team of contributors discuss the relationship between landscape as defined by the European Landscape Convention and the concept of sustainable development. This English edition has a new introduction written by Yves Luginbühl and Peter Howard. The book is then divided into three sections: Biophysical Realities and Landscape Practice; Landscape Resources-Inheritance and Renewal; Governance and Participation. Some of the topics covered, such as wind-farm landscapes, will be familiar to English language readers, but others, such as footpath economics, non-woodland trees, inter-generational equity, and the insistence on the necessary developments in governance less so.
Download or read book Sustainable Tourism VII written by F.D. Pineda and published by WIT Press. This book was released on 2016-06-28 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sustainable Tourism VII contains papers presented at the seventh in a series of meetings on the topic organised by the Wessex Institute. The papers included in the book address problems, including social costs and ecological impacts that have arisen as tourism has become an important component of development. Many ancient local cultures have practically lost their identity as their economies have become solely oriented to the tourism industry. Both the natural and cultural – rural or urban – landscapes have also paid a high price for certain forms of tourism. These problems will persist to the point of being ruinous if economic benefit is the only target. It is also a grave error to disregard the increasing cultural and environmental standards that visitors demand nowadays. Natural ecosystems are now a rarity on the planet and ecologists talk today about ‘socio-ecosystems’. Natural changes are inherent in the Earth’s ecosystem. Technological and social changes are inherent to mankind, and are now becoming widespread. Cities are growing rapidly and industry requires increasingly larger areas. Many traditional rural areas are being abandoned. Tourism should play an important role in this context. Thus, interestingly, many historic agricultural districts have maintained, or even recovered, their local population numbers through intelligent strategies of tourism focused on nature and rural culture. Natural landscapes and biodiversity are becoming increasingly appreciated. The tourism industry must be able to respond to these aspirations. The papers in the book present new solutions to protect the natural and cultural landscape by minimizing the adverse effects of tourism. Topics addressed include: Tourism strategies; Environmental issues; Community issues; Climate change; Safety and security; Tourism as a tool of development; Cultural tourism; Heritage tourism; Wildlife and adventure tourism; Health and wellbeing tourism; Medical tourism; Marine and coastal areas tourism; Sport tourism; City tourism; Tourism impact; Tourism and protected areas; Ecotourism; Rural tourism; Industrial tourism; Tourism and technology; Transport and tourism; Education and tourism; Theme parks and leisure; Destination management; Planning and development; eTourism; Simulation models; Social and physical infrastructure.
Download or read book Rural Writing written by Mauricette Fournier and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-01-17 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If, as a corollary of urbanization, many artists seized, as early as the nineteenth century and most of the twentieth century, the city as object and scene of their reflection on a world under construction, it was not the same for rural areas. Generally speaking, until recently, the countryside's representations have been shaped by the writings of a ruling class. However, in recent decades, alongside the “country novels” or “terroir novels” that follow in line with the rustic current initiated in the nineteenth century, more demanding literary productions have emerged. These writings, often fed by the sense of loss and the end of a certain agricultural lifestyle, are also exploring the contemporary reconstructions of rural areas, little publicized. They redefine a new “regionality”, less militant and certainly less connoted in its nostalgic link to the land. This book revisits rural areas and their representations in contemporary writing, in both popular and high culture, in order to draw a global landscape of current rural areas and new regionalities.
Download or read book People Centred Methodologies for Heritage Conservation written by Rebecca Madgin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-17 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents methodological approaches that can help explore the ways in which people develop emotional attachments to historic urban places. With a focus on the powerful relations that form between people and places, this book uses people-centred methodologies to examine the ways in which emotional attachments can be accessed, researched, interpreted and documented as part of heritage scholarship and management. It demonstrates how a range of different research methods drawn primarily from disciplines across the arts, humanities and social sciences can be used to better understand the cultural values of heritage places. In so doing, the chapters bring together a series of diverse case studies from both established and early-career scholars in Australia, China, Europe, North America and Central America. These case studies outline methods that have been successfully employed to consider attachments between people and historic places in different contexts. This book advocates a need to shift to a more nuanced understanding of people’s relations to historic places by situating emotional attachments at the core of urban heritage thinking and practice. It offers a practical guide for both academics and industry professionals towards people-centred methodologies for urban heritage conservation.
