From destination management to destination governance
Tourist destinations face the challenge of being characterized by a highly fragmented offer, by a complex relationship between public institutions and private enterprises and by contrasting opposed stakeholder interests. Consequently, destination planning and management become a difficult process and destination development strategies regularly experience considerable obstacles during their implementation. This paper intends to investigate the concept of ‘destination governance’ in tourism literature and how the related innovation in management models perspective could help destinations to maintain their position in the competitive travel market. The case study of a Swiss Alpine destination (Bosco Gurin), developed by Padurean in 2010, would provide empirical evidence to the governance literature analysis.
Eatalians do it better
Cos’è il Made in Italy che ci invidiano all’estero? Non ci si interroga soltanto sul letteralmente “fatto” in Italia, ma più visceralmente su quel valore aggiunto che sembra nascere dalla nostra penisola.
Place Branding and Place Identity. An integrated approach
Place Branding is based on a very elusive concept of place identity that needs to be re-examined. An understanding of place as simultaneously absolute, relative and relational on the one hand and as the “coexistence of difference” on the other, opens up new perspectives for this concept. Looking at the ways that place is constituted and considering its individual constitutive elements, can lead to a more dynamic understanding of place identity that would integrate mental images, materiality, institutions, practices and representations. This has deep consequences on the conceptualization and practicability of Place Branding that then needs to be reconsidered in an integrated way.
Megaproyectos en tiempos de crisis: el caso de España
En una España devastada por la crisis, la continuidad de ciertas grandes infraestructuras culturales en construcción está en tela de juicio. Después de 20 años de edificación intensiva de museos de arte contemporáneo, de salas de conciertos o de teatros, estimulada por unas administraciones regionales recientes y deseosas de construir una nueva identidad, los efectos de la crisis son muy palpables: derrumbamiento de las subvenciones y del mecenazgo y simplificación de los programas de las fundaciones bancarias (como la de La Caixa), de los museos o de los festivales. Eso cuando no se trata directamente de la bancarrota, como en el caso del gran festival de música Summercase en Barcelona o en el del admirable Museo Chillida-Leku en el País Vasco.
Marchi culturali e territoriali
Concetti legati alla creazione, accumulazione e scambio di conoscenza sono diventati tipici dei filoni di ricerca atti ad indagare i fenomeni emergenti su scala territoriale. Sebbene sembrino essere ad una prima occhiata concetti antitetici, il territorio – essenza fisica, presente, tangibile – e la conoscenza, immateriale, dai contorni sfumati e priva di caratteristiche fisiche, assumono un senso proprio quando sono contestualizzati all’interno di un luogo, di un’area territoriale in cui si produce la scintilla della creatività.
