Learning objectives
The course aims at giving knowledge of the phenomenon of tourism in its various aspects. The desire to discover has led man to move for different reasons: knowledge, faith, culture, health, fun. Different purposes, typologies and ways of moving in time and space have marked landscapes, relationships, cultures, arts and economics. This course aims at providing the conceptual, methodological and cultural bases needed to analyze and interpret the complex mosaic in which the different current forms of tourism are articulated. Going through the history of tourism the course highlights tourism as a constantly expanding economic activity, as well as the aspects and problems arising from the opposing need for enhancement and protection of environmental and cultural heritage.
Prerequisites and basic notions
Knowledge of the basics of geography. However, some concepts will be taken up again during the course.
Program
The course aims to outline the essential characteristics of tourism in its geographical implications. After an introductory part dedicated to the general and defining aspects of the tourism phenomenon, we will focus on the evolutionary dynamics in terms of time and on the more specifically territorial impacts (life cycle of the tourist region; impact of globalization on the dynamics of tourism; new forms of organization and management of tourist spaces). Particular emphasis will be given to the tourism-culture relationship and to the historical-cultural and landscape-environmental values. Finally, the Italian tourism sector will be studied in depth, in its typological and structural articulations and in the international competitive context. At the end of the course, the student must have acquired the skills to understand and analyze the geographic - tourist characteristics of the various territorial contexts; outline possible operational scenarios.
