Abstract

This book provides an authoritative, state-of-the-art review of tour guiding scholarship and research and aims to foster best practice and to stimulate further study and research on tour guiding across a range of disciplines. It explores how tour guiding theory and practice has evolved over time and what factors have contributed to this. The volume consolidates, synthesises and adds to the knowledge base and foreshadows how current and future trends and issues might impact on tour guiding research and practice in the 21st century. The studies reviewed in this book cover a wide range of contexts in which guided tours are conducted, ranging from city streets to heritage and wildlife tourism attractions, from high-end tourist lodging establishments to national park campgrounds, and from highly developed destinations to very remote ones in both developed and developing countries. The book is well-illustrated and its accessible style with chapter summaries makes it ideal for students as well as researchers.

Abstract

Les Lacandons, groupe indigène du Mexique méridional, sont considérés parmi les derniers survivants de la civilisation maya. Si les archéologues, ethnologues, peintres ou photographes n’ont jamais cessé d’être présents auprès de ce groupe depuis le début du XXe siècle, la découverte des ruines de Bonampak en 1946, qui recèlent les peintures murales les mieux conservées du monde maya, a considérablement accru cet intérêt et entraîné un véritable tournant dans l’histoire récente des Lacandons. En s’appuyant sur la notion de « société ethnologisée » forgée par l’anthropologue Anne Doquet dans son étude sur les Dogons du Mali, Julie Liard analyse les multiples enquêtes et missions réalisées auprès des Lacandons et en évalue l’impact sur un groupe qui a considérablement évolué au contact de la discipline ethnologique. Puisant dans un riche corpus bibliographique et dans un travail de terrain qui l’a conduite durant plusieurs mois dans l’État du Chiapas, l’auteure met notamment l’accent sur le rôle des sciences sociales dans la construction de l’imagerie occidentale, sur le processus de transformation des ruines en patrimoine et sur la mise en place d’un tourisme qui apparaît davantage comme la matrice d’une reformulation de l’identité des Lacandons que comme une machine à broyer les cultures.
