considerably over the past few decades as scholars have critically
re-examined the relationships between past memories and present
actions at international, national, and local scales.

representations, experiences, thoughts, emotions and identities of
the various actors involved in the reproduction of social memory
and heritage landscapes. Social Memory and Heritage Tourism
Methodologies describes and demonstrates innovations - including
qualitative, quantitative, and mixed method approaches - for
analysing the process and politics of remembering and touring the
past through place. An introductory chapter looks at the history of
social memory and heritage tourism research and the particular
challenges posed by these fields of study. In subsequent chapters,
the reader is lead through the varying methodologies employed by
presenting them in the context of an in-depth case study from range
of geographical locations. The resulting volume showcases
innovative research in social memory and heritage tourism and
provides the reader with insights into how they can successfully
conduct their own research while avoiding common pitfalls. This
title will be useful reading for scholars, professionals and
students in tourism, geography, anthropology and museum studies who
are preparing to conduct research on the reproduction of social
memory in particular landscapes and places or are interested in
investigating heritage tourism practices and representations.
