Creative Research Methods for Critical Event Studies (Routledge Critical Event Studies Research Series.)
by Louise Platt Rebecca Finkel Briony SharpThis timely and innovative book offers an introduction to a range of creative methods, providing both empirical and conceptual guidance. Based upon existing empirical work and richly illustrated throughout, each chapter carefully examines creative methodology and/or methods within an event and festival context. International case studies are incorporated throughout, providing real-world examples of how these methods have been used in practice, as well as highlighting potential ethical issues. Each chapter includes a concise ‘how to’ set of guidelines to help researchers and students employ creative methods in their own work, as well as a series of ‘think points’ to help develop ethical practices. Chapters illustrate new pathways or lessons learned from research during the pandemic and other challenging landscapes.This significant volume offers festival and event researchers and students a different approach to their work that could result in better research, reaching hidden and marginalised groups.
Cultural Heritage, Community Engagement and Sustainable Tourism: Case Studies from Archaeological Sites in the Global South (Contemporary Geographies of Leisure, Tourism and Mobility)
by Steven Mithen Mubariz Ahmed Rabbani Maria RabbaniThis timely and innovative book critically explores how cultural heritage in the Global South can be used to mobilise community engagement and promote sustainable tourism at archaeological sites.Whilst the volume covers theoretical issues, it primarily offers insight into how both small and large projects within low- and middle-income countries start, plan and develop. It describes what factors lead some projects to succeed, some to fail and most to have elements of both. Core to this investigation, each specifically commissioned chapter considers the challenges of developing collaboration and joint ownership between multiple stakeholders, ranging from local communities to national governments. In addition, the book considers how the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic were managed, with lessons for future events of such magnitude. In summary, this significant volume recognises the value of developing collaborative partnerships between academics, NGOs and local communities, to achieve community engagement within archaeological research and support sustainable development by developing appropriate forms of tourism at archaeological sites. It provides essential reading for those interested in tourism, heritage studies, archaeology, geography, tourism studies and cultural studies.The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND)] 4.0 license.
Cultural Heritage on the Urban Peripheries: Towards New Research Paradigms (Contemporary Geographies of Leisure, Tourism and Mobility)
by Maria Gravari-Barbas María García-HernándezThis innovative and insightful book critically explores how to recognize and generate the social, cultural, political and economic values of the heritage of urban peripheries and encourage new metropolitan development scenarios that protect and build upon that cultural heritage.Expert-led and richly illustrated throughout, the text addresses issues such as the management and development of the cultural heritage of urban peripheries, community involvement, the relationship of youth with cultural heritage, the heritage of ethnic communities and their cultural identity, tourism development supported by heritage resources and the art-heritage relationship at urban peripheries. It looks at the whole spectrum of heritage of the metropolitan peripheries including architectural heritage (industrial areas, factories and warehouses); transport infrastructure (canals and railways); social housing, and contemporary residential architecture. It also comprises the rich intangible heritages of working-class and/or migrant communities, in process of constant change and reconfiguration through protest, negotiation and cultural expression. This significant volume reveals the heterogeneity of the existing cultural heritage in the urban peripheries, the complexity of the processes of recognition and social appropriation of these assets as well as their need for protection.This is a pivotal resource for students, scholars and academics of urban studies, tourism studies and cultural studies, as well as those with an interest in these topics more generally.

Dear New York, I Love You: An Artist's Celebration of the City
by Ria SimEnjoy 120 colorful sketches that remind even the most jaded New Yorkers to notice the city’s simple beauties. Ria Sim, the creator of the popular Instagram account @coffeecakescafe, might be New York City’s biggest fan. She herself describes New York City as her soulmate (though it started out as just a crush when she lived in the Bay Area). Now a full-time Manhattan resident, Ria sees the best in the city: she’s moved by the simplicity of the buildings against the sky, a single flower on a not-so-clean sidewalk, and the ever-rotating, meticulously curated decorations adorned on a brownstone in the West Village. She draws everything from local landmarks like Joe’s Pizza and the Stonewall Inn to strangers’ doorsteps and snow-covered yellow cabs. Dear New York, I Love You allows you to see New York through Ria’s eyes and in all seasons—it’s a colorful celebration, a love letter, and a beautiful art book all in one.
Decolonial Travel: Vernacular Mobilities in India
by Avishek RayThis volume brings together scholarship on indigenous forms of travel to decolonize travel theory. It looks at certain minoritarian-vernacular traveling cults – very rarely examined – that compel us to rethink, on the one hand, the conventional tropes of and rationales for travel; and, on the other hand, notions of (post)coloniality, nationalism and modernity in the context of India. The book illustrates the enduring problematic of the ‘colonial episteme’: how it deploys pervasive categories through which travel practices are sought to be understood, and why such categories are inadequate in accounting for the vernacular traveling cults in question. In studying the vernacular world-making in and through these cults, this book offers critical insights on how they defy the log(ist)ics of the ‘imperial categories’ and why they must be read as expressions of decoloniality. An important contribution to travel studies, the book will be an indispensable resource for students and researchers of South Asian studies, travel theory, Indian literary and cultural studies, cultural history and anthropology, sociology, and decoloniality.
