Recenzii

This book is a solid addition to the scholarly literature on heritage tourism and, in particular, the geopolitics of the management of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The editors have done an excellent job in providing both a geographically wide-ranging set of case studies and critical scholarly research. This is a fine volume for practitioners and scholars in heritage tourism management and research. Those with serious interests in World Heritage Sites, the UNESCO selection process, heritage management and heritage tourism ought to consider this volume.
