Recenzii

This fascinating book delves into another element of heritage that has not been adequately examined by tourism scholars. Its coverage of sugar and all that sugar production entails as forms of heritage is extraordinary and commendable. The work is a valuable contribution to the burgeoning scholarly theme of 'heritage of the ordinary', and its chapters are loaded with decisive discourses on globalization, slavery, colonialism, social inequities, collective amnesia, place identity, and contested heritages, to name but a few conceptual pearls. Its worldwide perspectives and strong conceptual grounding make Sugar Heritage and Tourism in Transition essential reading for heritage and tourism scholars everywhere. Professor Dallen J. Timothy, Arizona State University, USA In thematically-linked and interdisciplinary essays, Sugar Heritage and Tourism in Transition offers a comprehensive, thoughtful and sensitive overview of the challenges confronting former sugarcane producers as they convert to tourism-based economies and strive to attract tourists by focusing on their nations' sugar heritage, including slavery and indentureship, without compromising its authenticity.
