Focusing primarily on the popular and institutional practices of herit...
Dieses Buch diskutiert interdisziplinär das Verhältnis zwischen Stadtgeschichte und Stadtmarketing und zeigt konkrete Beispiele für einen Umgang mit Stadtgeschichte auf, der sich als seriöse Inwertsetzung und Übersetzung der Geschichte vor allem an der Frage orientiert, was die Geschichte für Gegenwart und Zukunft der Stadt bedeuten kann.

This volume is a collection of studies that analyze cultural encounters in Europe from multidisciplinary perspectives. The book faithfully reflects the research conducted at various departments within the Faculty of Arts and Letters at the University of Szeged, Hungary.
