Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage, qui fait suite au volume six de la même série, sur le thème "Patrimoine culturel et tourisme alternatif" s'inscrit dans la continuité de la réflexion précédemment initiée, aux plans à la fois matériel, en appréhendant les composantes du patrimoine naturel au-delà du seul patrimoine culturel, et spatial, en accueillant les contributions originales et inédites d'auteurs d'Amérique latine (Mexique), du Maghreb (Maroc), du Proche-Orient (Jordanie), d'Asie (Malaisie) et d'Océanie (Polynésie française). Il s'agit en l'occurrence, à travers des regards croisés et souvent complémentaires, d'approfondir et de diversifier les recherches et le premier panel d'études fondées sur la dynamique et la prospective du double constat des impacts socio-économiques du tourisme sur les composantes patrimoniales de l'environnement, et, en sens inverse, de l'attrait déterminant des ressources d'un patrimoine dûment valorisé sur la demande et l'offre touristiques. Les études présentées procèdent d'une démarche pluridisciplinaire, qui explore les différents volets politique, économique, juridique, socio-culturel, de la protection, de la conservation et de la valorisation de ressources patrimoniales plus ou moins aisément (ré)appropriées par les populations et/ou les communautés locales, face à l'emprise du droit et des politiques étatiques, dans le cadre d'une gestion participative et en partie intégrée répondant aux exigences complémentaires et multiples d'un développement, touristique en particulier, viable et durable. Entre questionnements et réponses, ce second volet d'inventaire entend apporter une contribution constructive et opérationnelle à l'exploration de la relation dialectique déterminante entre tourisme et patrimoine.

Download or read book Identification des principales zones prot g es transfontali res en Europe written by Robert Brunner and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'établissement du Réseau écologique paneuropéen représente un des objectifs majeurs de la Stratégie paneuropéenne de la diversité biologique et paysagère. La protection de zones transfrontalières dans le cadre d'un tel réseau écologique composé de groupes de zones protégées pourrait être une étape importante vers la protection du patrimoine naturel en Europe. La coopération transfrontalière offre la possibilité de créer des zones protégées plus vastes et d'harmoniser leur gestion, apportant ainsi une contribution très importante à la préservation de la biodiversité. Le présent rapport traite de la coopération transfrontalière dans les pays d'Europe centrale et orientale, y compris les pays en transition d'Europe orientale, dont la Russie, les pays Baltes, le Bélarus et l'Ukraine.
Download or read book Les vocabulaires locaux du patrimoine written by Julien Bondaz and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2014 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le souci du "patrimoine" constitue aujourd'hui une activité universelle dont la diffusion est soutenue par les grandes organisations internationales. Elle produit chaque jour de nouveaux espaces de contacts entre les doctrines occidentales et le reste du monde. Mais que sait-on au juste des terminologies et des pratiques de conservation qui fonctionnent en dehors des canons occidentaux ? Ce livre s'attache à décrire et comparer les vocabulaires indigènes du "patrimoine", en montrant la diversité des conceptions locales et leur dialogue avec les politiques internationales. Se révèlent ainsi les ajustements et les oppositions linguistiques et pratiques que les acteurs activent, depuis leurs propres lieux, pour distinguer ces biens singuliers que nous appelons "patrimoine".
Download or read book Oases and Globalization written by Emilie Lavie and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-03-25 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a reference work about the study of oases in the context of globalization. It is based on selected papers presented at the international colloquium entitled Oases in the Globalization, Ruptures and Continuities in Paris (December 16-17th, 2013). The main issue was to understand how oases have been excluded from or included into the process of globalization. In this context, the present book proposes firstly a discussion about the definition(s) of oasis and secondly several case studies analysing socio-spatial mutations in the oasis structure. The third part deals with the compelling globalization at different spatial scales, using two entries: the water management and local impacts of external control.
Download or read book From Urban National Parks to Natured Cities in the Global South written by Frédéric Landy and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-20 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important volume focuses on the sensitive issue of interrelationships between national parks situated near or within urban areas and their urban environment. It engages with both urban and conservation issues and and compares four national parks located in four large cities in the global South: Rio de Janeiro, Cape Town, Mumbai, and Nairobi. Though primarily undertaken as academic research, the project has intensively collaborated with the institutions in charge of these parks. The comparative structure of this volume is also original and unique: each of the chapters incorporates insight from all four sites as far as possible.The term “naturbanity” expresses the necessity for cities endowed with a national park to integrate it into their functioning. Conversely, such parks must take into account their location in an urban environment, both as a source of heavy pressures on nature and as a nexus of incentives to support their conservation. The principle of non-exclusivity, that is, neither the city nor the park has a right nor even the possibility to negate the other’s presence, summarizes the main argument of this book. Naturbanity thus blurs the old “modern” dichotomy of nature/culture: animals and human beings can often jump the physical and ideological walls separating many parks from the adjacent city. The 13 chapters and substantive introduction of this volume discuss various aspects of naturbanity: the histories of park creation; interaction between people and parks; urban governance and parks; urban conservation models; wildlife management; environmental education; and so on. This is a must-read for students and researchers interested in social ecology, social geography, conservation, urban planning and ecological policy.

Download or read book Waterways and the Cultural Landscape written by Francesco Vallerani and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-11 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water control and management have been fundamental to the building of human civilisation. In Europe, the regulation of major rivers, the digging of canals and the wetland reclamation schemes from the sixteenth to nineteenth centuries, generated new typologies of waterscapes with significant implications for the people who resided within them. This book explores the role of waterways as a form of heritage, culture and sense of place and the potential of this to underpin the development of cultural tourism. With a multidisciplinary approach across the social sciences and humanities, chapters explore how the control and management of water flows are among some of the most significant human activities to transform the natural environment. Based upon a wealth and breadth of European case studies, the book uncovers the complex relationships we have with waterways, the ways that they have been represented over recent centuries and the ways in which they continue to be redefined in different cultural contexts. Contributions recognise not only valuable assets of hydrology that are at the core of landscape management, but also more intangible aspects that matter to people, such as their familiarity, affecting what is understood as the fluvial sense of place. This highly original collection will be of interest to those working in cultural tourism, cultural geography, heritage studies, cultural history, landscape studies and leisure studies.

Download or read book Landscape and Sustainable Development written by Professor Peter Howard and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2015-04-28 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previously published in French by Editions 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. Some of the topics covered, such as wind-farm landscapes, will be familiar to English language readers, but others, are less so, such as footpath economics, non-woodland trees, inter-generational equity, and the insistence on the necessary developments in governance.

Download or read book Tourism in Bali and the Challenge of Sustainable Development written by Sylvine Pickel-Chevalier and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-01-23 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work offers a cross-analysis of the development of tourism in Bali, combining international and intercultural (from Indonesian, French, Australian and English researchers), transdisciplinary and inter-generational research. It questions the capacity of tourism, to be a vector of sustainable development, by analyzing its various social, economic and environmental effects within Balinese society. As such, it represents not only a great research tool, but a fantastic teaching aid. Each chapter comes with its own bibliography, and thus acts as a standalone case study, while making a contribution to the overall thrust of the book.
Download or read book Polar Tourism written by Alain A. Grenier and published by PUQ. This book was released on 2012-10-01T00:00:00-04:00 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The creation of the Nunavik is a major step forward, both for the Province of Quebec and its Inuit population. Not only does it underline the recognition of the Inuit people and their identity but it also stresses the importance of discussing some fundamental issues regarding the emancipation of the Inuit, their empowerment, the development and management of the northern resources of Quebec, and the protection and conservation of the fragile Nordic ecosystems. Rich in culture and scenery, Nunavik has identified tourism as one of the main and best suited avenue for economic development. But before Nunavik can truly enjoy the benefits of a well established tourism “industry”, many challenges need to be met. The development of tourism in a new destination is not only challenging but it requires human efforts, political and economic will over a large amount of time without much guaranties as to what will work or not.It is in this context that in August 2008, the members of the newly created International Polar Tourism Research Network (IPTRN) came to Kangiqsujjuak, Nunavik, to discuss how tourism can play a role in regional development. The collection of articles presented here is the result of the coming together of a group of polar tourism researchers from around the world, who met in Nunavik - the northernmost part of Quebec, to discuss polar tourism as a tool for regional development. Such a book does not claim to address all issues facing the polar destinations. It is nevertheless a base for reflection. Many of the new emerging regions of the circumpolar world, like the Nunavik, are experimenting with new powers and responsibilities.For scientists, this is an excellent time to assist with the experiences that have been well documented from other Northern, Arctic and polar regions. For tourism, this book is meant to offer a range of perspectives on how challenges can be met and how solutions can be implemented for the benefit of all local interests.
