Document Summary

Tourism - an anthropological study: heritage tourism, dark tourism, sex tourism. Working class struggles: need to have time to do tourism, transportation infrastructure, may be railway, productive structure of society leads way to tourism trains started as moving goods, then later used as transportation device. Jacque tati: beach tourism in france not until after wwii. Mandatory minimum holidays: allowed for more tourism, leaving work, well integrated and extensive rail network, later also a highway network, helped tourism to beach. Dr. charles menzies focus on history of settlement (from europe and other parts of world), sometimes indigenous/aboriginal are showcased, but usually they are in museum and not the same type of exhibits. Most historical reenactment sites focus on colonial past intervention into the place of politics and ownership (who belongs here, who owns this place), so not much about aboriginals. Disneyland setting - performance of a place/moment in time. Can get a chance to experience the past.
