Since the midterm Talked more about the practices and concepts of the business of heritage, both in the industry of commerce and the industry of resource managers Assets and their management Assessment Partnerships Commodities Management Where you stand on an issue depends upon where you sit. The alignment of assumptions and assessment instruments in the discourse of heritage tourism may be more influential on cooperative agreement than the procedures and policies. One analysis might suggest that government support of heritage, both in tangible artifacts (preservation of standing structures and landscapes) and intangible art forms (dance, narrative, music, as well as crafts) has produced a world where the business of heritage and the business of tourism can use similar models of production.
The Test When: Thursday 15 December 2011 from 8:30 to 11:00 a.m. What: Twenty short answer questions (worth two points each) These are taken from readings and other materials only since the midterm.

Can The Marriage Survive? The authors of our text state in the epilogue that resource management and tourism function in parallel. They ask: How can key stakeholders work together to blend the identification, development, and promotion of cultural tourism into a seamless process? Cultural heritage managers and asset owners provide the raw materials. The tourism industry then transforms the raw asset (commodity) into a tourism product and assumes the role of shaping the message communicated to the public to attract them to consume it. Benefits of tourism consumption (for asset managers): Awareness of the value of the asset Needs to conserve asset's unique attributes. Financial wherewithal to conserve assets (direct and indirect) A tool to achieve broader management objectives Retain or regain control over their assets (by shaping experiences of tourists)
Five Types of Cultural Tourists 1. The purposeful cultural tourist-cultural tourism is the primary motive for visiting a destination, and the individual has a deep cultural experience (see Photo 9.1). 2. The sightseeing cultural tourist cultural tourism is a primary or major reason for visiting a destination, but the experience is more shallow. 3. The serendipitous cultural tourist -a tourist who does not travel for cultural tourism reasons, but who, after participating, ends up having a deep cultural tourism experience. 4. The casual cultural tourist cultural tourism is a weak motive for visiting a destination, and the resultant experience is shallow 5. The incidental cultural tourist this tourist does not travel for cultural tourism reasons but nonetheless participates in some activities and has shallow experiences.
Areas to consider What are: Heritage(s) and Tourism as practiced? Where you stand on an issue depends upon where you sit. The alignment of assumptions and assessment instruments in the discourse of heritage tourism may be more influential on cooperative agreement than the procedures and policies. Tourism is seen as an active agent Resource Managers are seen as acting in reaction (why?) What is inevitable? Who can foresee the future? Emphasis on sustainable, a contested term (why is contested?) In broad terms what is the present circumstance of heritage tourism? In the United States In countries outside the United States What is truly international is the business of tourism, more than the stewardship of heritage. In the present and the near future what is the most likely kind of elaboration of the current circumstances?
