Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a critical and complicated picture of how leisure tourism connected the world after the World War II, transforming coastal lands, traditional societies, and national economies in new ways. The 21 chapters in this book analyze selected case studies of architectures and landscapes around the world, contextualizing them within economic geographies of national development, the geopolitics of the Cold War, the legacies of colonialism, and the international dynamics of decolonization. Postwar leisure tourism evokes a rich array of architectural spaces and altered coastal landscapes, which is explored in this collection through discussions of tourism developments in the Mediterranean littoral, such as Greece, Turkey, and southern France, as well as compelling analyses of Soviet bloc seaside resorts along the Black Sea and Baltic coasts, and in beachscapes and tourism architectures of western and eastern hemispheres, from Southern California to Sri Lanka, South Korea, and Egypt. This collection makes a compelling argument that "leisurescapes," far from being supra-ideological and apolitical spatial expressions of modernization, development, and progress, have often concealed histories of conflict, violence, social inequalities, and environmental degradation. It will be of interest to architectural and urban historians, architects and planners, as well as urban geographers, economic and environmental historians.

Download or read book Urban Tourism and Development in the Socialist State written by Andrea Colantonio and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the collapse of the Soviet bloc in 1989, Fidel Castro announced the beginning of aSpecial Period for Cuba. During this time, the Cuban government has been obliged to look outward to other economies of the developed world, specifically targeting tourism as a mechanism for economic growth and development. This book examines the role played by international tourism in Cuba‘s institutional and economic restructuring and the country‘s reinsertion into the capitalist world economy. It provides the most comprehensive, in-depth analysis of the economic, social, environmental and political realities which have emerged in Cuba as a result of the redevelopment of urban tourism since the early 1990s. By analyzing the allocation of tourist resources and its impacts, the generation of tourism policy, and the politics of tourism development, it focuses on the political economy of urban tourism in Cuba and the balance of power between domestic and foreign stakeholders involved in the Cuban tourist industry.

Download or read book LA ARQUITECTURA DE LA REVOLUCIÓN CUBANA 1959-2018 written by Manuel Cuadra and published by kassel university press GmbH. This book was released on 2018 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La presente publicación documenta las ponencias presentadas en el marco del “Encuentro Académico Cubano-Alemán” desarrollado en la Universidad de Kassel en marzo 2017. Constituye uno de los resultados del proyecto de investigación dedicado a la Arquitectura de Revolución Cubana, dedicado a la producción arquitectónica en Cuba de 1959 al presente. El título del proyecto de investigación en alemán – “Träume und Räume einer Revolution” – expresa muy bien la intención de contemplar a la vez lo que han sido y son las aspiraciones de los cubanos de 1959 en adelante y los espacios que han construido como contenedores de estas aspiraciones: se trata pues de captar un espíritu tal como se manifiesta en la arquitectura y el urbanismo, y, a la vez, se trata de reconocer a través de la obra arquitectónica realizada el espíritu que contiene. Una labor así requiere registrar la obra realizada, documentarla, y estudiarla críticamente. A la hora de encaminar este proyecto fue sustancial la inspiración que le debemos a Mario Coyula, lamentablemente fallecido demasiado temprano. A la hora de pasar a la implementación el saber de nuestro lado a José Fornés nos significó un aliciente permanente. Una aproximación fundamental al material trabajado ha sido a través de los historiadores de la arquitectura cubanos, concretamente a través de los profesores de historia de la arquitectura de las cuatro universidades con facultades o departamentos de arquitectura: son los autores de las ponencias aquí documentadas. Estamos muy agradecidos por los relatos que nos han presentado: relatos referidos a las regiones en las que se ubican las cuatro universidades, y otros referidos a temas puntuales. A Dr. María Victoria Zardoya de la Universidad Tecnológica de La Habana “José Antonio Echeverría” le debemos la historia de arquitectura de la Revolución en la ciudad de La Habana; Dr. Roberto Severino López Machado, MSc. Milvia Maribona García Robés y Arq. Oscar López Luis de la Universidad Central “Marta Abreu” de Las Villas se dedicaron a la región centro oeste, Dr. Adela María García yero de la Universidad de Camagüey “Ignacio Agramonte Loynaz” a Camagüey y Ciego de Ávila, y Dr. Flora Morcate Labrada y Dra. Milene Soto Suárez de la Universidad de Oriente a la región oriental. A MSc. Ruslan Muñoz Hernández de la Universidad Tecnológica de La Habana “José Antonio Echeverría” le agradecemos la profundización del tema vivienda, a Milene Soto, Flora Morcate y María Victoria Zardoya aquella sobre educación, y a Dr. Ernesto Pereira Gómez de la Universidad Central “Marta Abreu” de Las Villas la profundización de los aspectos tecnológicos y constructivos. Cierra la documentación con la transcripción de una conferencia dada en octubre del 2017 en la Universidad Nacional de Rosario, Argentina. El compartir con los profesores y estudiantes allí las experiencias cubanas fue motivación suficiente para enfatizar las particularidades del camino andado en Cuba en un contexto latinoamericano e internacional – remarcando pues las particularidades no sólo geográficas, sino ante todo, históricas y culturales de países como los nuestros con un pasado colonial reciente y grandes dificultades para superar las dependencias neocoloniales propias de los países del Tercer Mundo. Queda este material a disposición de los estudiantes y estudiosos de la arquitectura en Cuba y el mundo, esperando que contribuya a lograr la meta de nuestro proyecto: darle a la arquitectura cubana de los años sesenta en adelante el lugar que le corresponde en el contexto latinoamericano por los desarrollos y las experiencias realizadas andando un camino diferente, andando un camino propio: el camino de la Revolución Cubana.

Download or read book Cuban Palimpsests written by Jose Quiroga and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four decades ago, the Cuban revolution captured the world’s attention and imagination. Its impact around the world was as much cultural as geopolitical. Within Cuba, the state developed a strictly defined national and collective memory that led directly from a colonial past to a utopian future, but this narrative came to a halt in the early 1990s. The collapse of Cuba’s sponsor, the Soviet Union, and the end of the Cold War preceded the so- called “Special Period in Times of Peace,” a euphemistic phrase that masked the genuine anxiety shared by leaders and people about the nation’s future. In Cuban Palimpsests, José Quiroga explores the sites, both physical and imaginative, where memory bears upon Cuba’s collective history in ways that illuminate this extended moment of uncertainty. Crossing geographical, political, and cultural borders, Quiroga moves with ease between Cuba, Miami, and New York. He traces generational shifts within the exile community, contrasts Havana’s cultural richness with its economic impoverishment, follows the cloak-and-dagger narratives of revolutionary and counterrevolutionary spy fiction and film, and documents the world’s ongoing fascination with Cuban culture. From the nostalgic photographs of Walker Evans to the iconic stature of Fidel Castro, from the literary expressions of despair to the beat of Cuban musical rhythms, from the haunting legacy of artist Ana Mendieta to the death of Celia Cruz and the reburial of Che Guevara, Cuban Palimpsests memorializes the ruins of Cuba’s past and offers a powerful meditation on its enigmatic place within the new world order. José Quiroga is professor and department chair of Spanish and Portuguese at Emory University. He is the author of Understanding Octavio Paz and Tropics of Desire: Interventions from Queer Latino America.

Download or read book The Challenge of Tourism Carrying Capacity Assessment written by Harry Coccossis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Planning and management for tourism growth is becoming essential in the context of sustainable development. Particularly so since many tourist destinations are facing severe pressures from tourist flows and activities. Such pressures are evidenced in terms of dysfunctions (congestion, environmental degradation, etc) which ultimately affect the attraction and competitiveness of tourism destinations. The development of tourism should be considered in accordance with sustainability principles. In this context respecting the capacity of the local system to sustain growth becomes a key challenge. This book examines the use of various tools to define, measure and evaluate tourism carrying capacity (TCC) - a tool aiming to impose limits for entering certain tourist destinations or using certain activities. Drawing on case studies from France, Spain, Italy, Greece, the UK, the Netherlands, Ireland, Belgium, Austria, Germany and Finland, it presents practical experiences of implementing TCC in various tourist destinations (i.e. historic towns, coastal zones, islands, etc). It draws conclusions regarding the measurement and implementation of TCC assessment and provides further guidelines towards a comprehensive methodological framework for assessing tourism sustainability in the future.
