*Long abstract*
The interplay of tourism and heritage is a powerful medium affecting
cultural change in urban historical centers. The loss of local population,
along with traditional modes of social behavior and vernacular cultural
practices, or the transformation of historic neighborhoods into thematic
parks for tourism consumption are some of the negative consequences of
tourism, that, as some authors have noted, are often expressed in the
public discourse making reference to the loss of the "authenticity" and
"real feel" of urban places (Zukin 2010).
This panel seeks to analyze the impact of tourism on the urban environment,
focusing on the concept of "ambiance" as a tool to explore the physical
regeneration and sensory transformation of contemporary touristic places.
How does heritage participates in creating particular urban ambiances and
places for tourist consumption? How tourism and city development affect the
lived ambiances in the urban context? What is the role of heritage and
expressive practices in relation to the physical regeneration and marketing
of contemporary touristic places?
We are inviting scholars from various academic fields to discuss these and
other questions, theoretical frameworks and empirical findings on issues
related to the relationship between heritage, expressive cultures and the
production of urban ambiances for tourist consumption in contemporary
cities.
