内容简介 World Heritage Sites are some of the most recognised locations around the world. They include natural sites such as the Grand Canyon and the Great Barrier and cultural ones such as the Pyramids at Giza, the Walled City of Baku in Azerbaijan and the Historic Centre of Riga in Latvia. The responsibility to manage them successfully and ensure that the resources are not damaged by visitors, war or environment is therefore vital.
Managing World Heritage Sites covers the management issues encountered at cultural and natural UNESCO World Heritage Sites). WHS sites are high profile and as their designation states they are unique. They are often government owned and subject to political debate, they have iconic status and are therefore crucial to national tourism industries, and often involve a large number of stakeholders within their management structures. This text considers all of these aspects in arriving at solutions for site management principles. In 12 chapters and 5 case studies it covers issues such as WHS designation, marketing, visitor management, revenue generation and management. Each chapter will examine the management issues associated with managing heritage within the WH Sites, making clear use of management practices to apply the theory.

媒体推荐 The authors have identified a niche in the market. I have no hesitation in recommending this text for publication. Paul Fidgeon, Principal lecturer in Tourism, Thames Valley University There really are no texts specifically dedicated to managing visitor attractions and this is the strength of the proposal. Tom Hose, Principal Lecturer in Tourism, Buckinghamshire Chilterns University College The sales potential seems good for this text as there is a shortage of good quality books specialising in this area. Rory McClellan, Senior Lecturer, The Scottish Hotel School, University of Strathclyde
