Abstract

A nation's heritage is one of the most potent forces for generating tourism: the Tower of London is the greatest 'visitor attraction' in Britain. But it is pushed into insignificance by comparison with the visitors travelling to Disneyland, Epcot and the other entertainment complexes in the USA; and it will be dwarfed by Euro-Disneyland east of Paris. So how should heritage attractions respond: should they find their own specific audiences and resources? This book, written by a leading heritage specialist, is essential reading for all those concerned both with heritage and leisure management.

Abstract

Cosmopolitans are individuals with a distinctive kind of extended national and international orientation, a global vision and sense of belonging to the world. These people are sophisticated and importantly engaged in the cultures outside of local geographical boundaries. Information about cosmopolitan consumers--their origins, values, media usage, and buyer behavior--presented in this book will be used to great practical advantage by marketing educators as well as by practicing marketers. This unique book fills a knowledge gap that has long been overlooked largely because other related marketing areas have overshadowed and overlooked the notion of cosmopolitan consumers. Until the publication of this volume, there has been no single authoritative source that directly and comprehensively covers the field of consumer cosmopolitanism. Moreover, through original essays by an all-star cast of contributors, the reader is introduced to a powerful new approach to marketing, eclectically packed with novel ideas and insights that noticeably advance the marketing field and bring it more fully into the age of globalization.

Abstract

The idea of the "global city," which focuses on globalisation's impact on the social, financial, and political reality of cities in advanced economies, has become widely influential in the decades since its introduction-and yet the major issues in the "global city debate" remain unresolved. This book provides a systematic overview of the debate and competing theoretical notions, as well as an argument for the need to test the framework's empirical validity before the unresolved questions can be fruitfully addressed. By testing data from the Netherlands in the 1990s and 2000s, the author demonstrates the value of rigorous empirical scrutiny while offering fresh insights for the global city debate as a whole.

Abstract

Politische Diskurse und sozialwissenschaftliche Debatten ringen gleichermaßen um eine angemessene Unterscheidung von antiamerikanischen Vorurteilen und legitimer Kritik an den USA. Felix Knappertsbusch leistet einen innovativen Beitrag zur Überwindung dieser Definitionsprobleme, indem er antiamerikanische Sprachgebräuche in Deutschland auf deren Funktionen bei der Herstellung diskriminierender gesellschaftlicher Verhältnisse befragt. Seine detaillierten Analysen von Interview- und Umfragedaten zeigen, wie Antiamerikanismus bei der Reproduktion nationalistischer Identitätskonstruktionen mit fremdenfeindlicher, rassistischer und antisemitischer Rhetorik zusammenspielt. »Die Vielschichtigkeit und Ambivalenz von Amerikabildern [wird deutlich]. Mit seiner Untersuchung liefert Knappertsbusch der Forschung wichtige Impulse, um diese Komplexität angemessen erschließen zu können.« Hans Beelen, Historische Zeitschrift, 308 (2019) »›Antiamerikanismus in Deutschland‹ liest sich äußerst kurzweilig.« Heiko Beyer, Politische Vierteljahresschrift, 4 (2017) »Eine umfängliche, theorieschwere, sprachlich hoch elaborierte, intellektuell anspruchsvolle Dissertation.« Wolfgang Berg, Forum Politikunterricht, 11.07.2016 »Ein wichtiger zeitdiagnostischer Beitrag, der das Zusammenspiel verschiedener gruppenfeindlicher Rhetoriken generell besser verstehen lässt.« Tamara Tischendorf, Deutschlandfunk - Andruck, 25.07.2016 Besprochen in: Der Tagesspiegel, 24.04.2016, Caroline Fetscher Portal für Politikwissenschaft, 01.09.2016, Frank Kaltofen Deutscher Verein für politische Bildung e.V., 8 (2020), Wolfgang Berg
