Countertourism: The Handbook,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
For anyone who's ever been a tourist, CounterTourism is an invitation to completely transform our experience of the heritagetourism industry and its many sites (castles, National Trust properties, etc.). It provides a set of powerful lenses, designed to bend a whole world of conventional tourism into a spiral of new perspectives and experiences. Beneath those simple sounding stories in the Visitor Guide and behind the locked gates marked PRIVATE in heritage sites, there lies a multitude of inconvenient stories, hilarities, wonders, absurdities, extremes and entertaining outrages. When CounterTourism opens the doors, tourism becomes a funny, shocking, revealing, subversive and lifechanging experience rather than a deferential procession through the unrevealing stately homes of Heritage plc. CounterTourism upsets the sanitising efforts of the heritage industry. Countertourism is also a journey of minipilgrimages, challenges and pleasures. It celebrates the multiplicities of meanings in every heritage venue and upsets all the heritage industry's attempts at meaningcontrol and homogenisation. With hundreds more tactics and images, philosophical diversions and asides, the Handbook is for anyone who wants to explore the ideas of countertourism in more depth. Part 2 of the Handbook has ideas on how to extend the tactics described in Part 1 into interventions that can be planned and performed in heritage sites. And Part 3 goes on to suggest open 'infiltrations' that can be used by artists, performers, radical tourists and even heritage site managers themselves to reinvent their own sites. Alongside this there's a photoessay on using the tactics, and a full bibliography.
