Different uses of the term heritage (Tunbridge and Ashworth

2. the product of modern conditions that are attributed to, and influenced by, the
past
3. all cultural and artistic productivity produced in the past or the present
4. includes elements from the natural environment that are survivals from the past,
seen as original, typical and appropriate to be passed on to future generations
5. a major commercial activity, loosely recognized as the heritage industry, that is
based on selling goods and services with a heritage component
6. adopted by the political extremism where heritage is used to discusse ethnic or
racial exclusivism.
5. Authenticity

Typology of authenticity - dynamic (Cohen 1979)
1. Truly authentic experiences (objectively real and accepted by the tourists as real)
2. Staged authenticity (staged or made up for the tourists but the tourists are unable
to distinguish this from reality) - covert tourist space
3. Denial of authenticity: the scene is presented as genuine but the tourists question
its authenticity.
4. Contrived authenticity. Overly inauthentic and preened as such by the tourist
establishment and perceived as such by the tourist - overt tourist space.
