There is an increasing recognition of the importance of culture for tourist motivation, behaviour and experiences. Estimates vary according to definitions, but statistics indicate the potential significance of cultural tourism in the world market. The overall purpose of this PhD dissertation was to understand the behaviour and the experience of tourists visiting cultural sites and attractions during holidays. This study identified heterogeneity among tourists visiting cultural and heritage sites in The Netherlands, and found significant differences between groups in terms of time spent at cultural heritage sites and the importance of cultural elements during a holiday. Five types of cultural tourists were identified, ranging from those for whom culture plays no role and thus spent various hours at cultural sites, to those who were highly motivated to travel for cultural reasons and spent also various hours at cultural sites and attractions. This study also reveals that the main key and the primary element is families and friends as the basis for the experience of cultural and heritage sites.

Kulturen sind keine voneinander isolierten Gebilde, sie durchdringen und beeinflussen sich gegenseitig. Beschreibungen solchen Kulturtransfers sind dabei immer wertend, geschehen sie doch stets selbst von einem kulturellen Standpunkt aus. Anhand konkreter Beispiele untersucht der Band kontroverse Wahrnehmungen und Darstellungen von Kulturtransfer in und zwischen Asien, Europa und der arabischen Welt. In allen drei Weltregionen spielen die behandelten Repräsentationen eine bedeutende Rolle bei der Bestimmung von »eigener« und »fremder« Kultur.

Der Inhalt des Buch behandelt den konzeptionellen Wandel von kulturellem Eigentum (cultural property) zu kulturellem Erbe (cultural heritage) innerhalb der UNESCO. Mit der Haager-Konvention von 1954 setzte die UNESCO erstmals das Konzept eines kulturellen Eigentums international in Kraft. Seit der Welterbekonvention von 1972 wurde jedoch die konzeptionelle Idee eines kulturellen Eigentums dahin gehend abgeändert, um von nun an das Konzept eines kulturellen Erbes hervorzuheben und somit den Schutzhorizont der Organisation zu erweitern. Der Wandel war letztendlich nicht nur durch die Emanzipationsbestrebungen der früheren Kolonien bedingt, sondern auch durch die stark euro-amerikanische Prägung des Eigentumsbegriffs, der in den bis dahin etablierten Konventionen Verwendung fand und gegenwärtig noch findet. Durch die Einführung eines Erbe-Konzepts konnte die Beschränktheit des Eigentumsbegriffes umgangen werden und weitere Kategorien, wie jene des Immateriellen/ Geistigen erfasst und zugleich Zugangsberechtigungen erweitert werden.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2004 im Fachbereich Germanistik - Linguistik, Note: 2,5, Technische Universität Chemnitz (Germanistische Sprachwissenschaft), Veranstaltung: Proseminar Sprache in deutschen Popmusiktexten, 15 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: "Punk war eine Explosion. Heftig, kurz, aber mit grossen Auswirkungen. Er zertrümmerte unsere wohleingerichteten Einschätzungen von gut und böse, schön und hässlich, heil und kaputt. Punk war ein Stil, ein subkultureller Code, und wurde so Teil des popgeschichtlichen Repertoires." (Kemper / Langhoff / Sonnenschein 2002, 186) "Punk vertritt keine Ideologie. Für was soll man auch sein, wenn alles Scheisse ist? Punk ist nichts als eine hässliche Pose, das Bekenntnis, Müll zu sein." (Wagner 1999, 123) Punk als d i e Subkultur der siebziger Jahre, die trotz ihres schnellen Verschwindens grosse Aufmerksamkeit erhielt, damals wie heute. Diese Arbeit möchte das Entstehen der Punk-Bewegung beleuchten und dabei vor allem auf die Forschungsergebnisse der Cultural Studies eingehen unter dem Aspekt Popmusiktexte als Gegenstand sprach- und kulturwissenschaftlicher Analysen.

Essay from the year 2006 in the subject Economics - International Economic Relations, grade: 1,3, University of Leipzig, 5 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Films can be seen as cultural products. To understand international trade of these cultural products it is necessary to reveal how industries and markets operate and evolve, furthermore analyzing the influence of industry structure, government policies and global economic conditions. International trade allows expanding markets to become certainly larger than the domestic one, as a result the consumer has the possibility to choose within a greater variety of goods and to take advantage from lower prices. Films are part of each culture. But still, films are products, first of all produced and sold in intention to make profits. What are films? Why do we speak from US Cultural imperialism? What can be regarded as cultural diversity? Which debates and agreements should be focused on when analyzing international trade of films? And finally, why do the U.S. dominate that industry? Which economic factors play a major role in this case? How sustainable is the U.S.? That sounds interesting? These and more questions will be answered within that economic essay.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2003 im Fachbereich BWL - Unternehmensforschung, Operations Research, Note: 1,0, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (Interkulturelle Kommunikation), Veranstaltung: Interkulturelles Lernen: von der Kulturtheorie zur sozialen Praxis¿ im Sommersemester 2002, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In der hier vorliegenden Hauptseminararbeit werden im ersten und zweiten Kapitel die theoretischen Grundlagen zu Gruppen & Teams und schliesslich zur Gruppen- und Teamentwicklung beschrieben. Dabei werden auch die Probleme von Diversity in Gruppen & Teams aufgezeigt. Darauf aufbauend wird ein Modell von Smith & Noakes vorgestellt, das die Gruppen- und Teamentwicklung in multikultureller Konstellation näher beleuchtet und in vier Phasen aufteilt. Es zeigen sich vor allem in der Anfangsphase des Teamentwicklungsprozesses Verständnisprobleme, die im Weiteren zu Konflikten und Meidung der andersartigen Gruppenmitglieder führen kann. Hieraus wird die Notwendigkeit der besonderen Behandlung und Intervention bei kulturell heterogenen Gruppen und Teams abgeleitet. Anschliessend werden einige Aspekte der Intervention in Form eines vorbereitenden Teamtrainings diskutiert. Neben der Bedarfsanalyse und Zielvereinbarung kommt vor allem der zu Grunde liegenden Theorie eine besondere Bedeutung zu. Als Basis dient die AUM Theorie von Gudykunst. Das Ziel des Trainings besteht in der Sensibilisierung der Teammitglieder für die eigene und die andersartige Kultur, damit die speziell in der Anfangsphase auftretenden Verständnisprobleme schneller überwunden werden können und es somit zu einer schnelleren produktiven Zusammenarbeit kommen kann.

This book maps out the history of Czechoslovak linguistic and social practices directed at Roma during the communist period. It explains how contemporary Czech society has come to understand the Romani population in terms of inherited social, medical and juridical ideas. Rather than focusing on the Roma people as an object of analysis, the book problematizes assumed notions of “Gypsiness” and “Czechness” in mainstream society by highlighting the role of different socialist discourses in constructing images of Roma as socially deviant and abnormal. By uncovering the lines of continuity in the intersections of ethnic discrimination, social deviance and citizenship from the 1950s to the collapse of communism, this book comes to terms with a variety of questions that have not yet been adequately addressed in the literature: What underlying assumptions informed the socialist regime’s understanding of “Gypsiness;” and how did these conceptions relate to notions of citizenship, equality and normality? How and why did the meaning of the terms “Gypsies” and “Roma” become imbued in popular discourse with ideas of unhealthiness and social deviance? What implications does translating perceived cultural traits and lifestyles of Roma into non-ethnic frames of reference have for understanding racism and ethnic sensibilities in the country today? The work emphasizes historical continuities between contemporary xenophobia and the strategies which the communist regime used to deal with the “Gypsy question.” Focusing on the discrepancies between written laws and policies as well as their implementation, this study exposes the intricate relationships between official beliefs, institutional policies and popular consciousness under the communist regime. For it was these relationships which together created the mechanisms of social control that facilitated discrimination of Czechoslovak Roma under the guise of social welfare.

Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2008 in the subject Sociology - Habitation, Urban Sociology, grade: Pass, The University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, course: Doctoral Final Oral Examination, language: English, abstract: As urban centers concentrate organizational, service, and communication infrastructures, amplifying both the influence of networks and the importance of global flows, the urban policy and theorization emphasis has to shift towards the performative, contingent and material aspects of cities. The theoretical effort of Münch reinforces the explanatory power of both theoretical research and practical problem solving by laying the foundations of a theory of modernity, systems of accumulation, and action. Münch¿s sociology allows for the analytical and historical description of individual and collective action. Post-traditional connections among anthropology, philosophy, political economy, and history make possible interdisciplinary arenas of inquiry defined more by subject than by discipline guiding the process of clarification of links among multiple sites where researcher can pursue his or her subject matter using the methodology of multi-sited anthropology. Münch¿s theorization of interpenetration, systems, and action allows for the reconstruction of the relations between economy and culture as analytical ideal types that allow for variation and change. Münch¿s development of Parsons¿, Weber¿s and Durkheim¿s sociology theorizes modern development in terms that connect systems of economic, cultural, social and political accumulation into a dynamic structure of related contradictions showing historical and geographical variations. In temporally, spatially, and socially specific ways, urban spaces actively contribute to the formation of economies, cultures, societies and polities. Cities serve as sites of strategic centrality, interrelated diversity, and mobile interconnection for individual and collective actors entering into spatially, historically, and relationally specific interrelations. Arising from the strategies of urban development, cultural clusters are variously shaped by the dynamics and contradictions of the interrelations among individual organizations, available strategies, and cultural objectives. Notably aligned with the transformations afoot in global cities, art museums and biennials manifest urban structures of modern social order. Thus, art exhibitions are complex and contingent instances of social, cultural, political, and economic accumulation.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2012 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Methodologie und Methoden, Note: Pass, Universität Basel (Institut für Soziologie), Veranstaltung: Soziologie der Macht, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Ziel dieser Proseminararbeit ist es, einen Überblick über die Entstehung und die Entwicklung der Cultural Studies zu liefern. Dabei sollen sowohl die historischen Hintergründe als auch die Methoden und Grundkategorien dieser Wissenschaftstradition vorgestellt werden. Die gesellschaftspolitischen Veränderungen im England des ausgehenden 19. und im 20. Jahrhundert und die mit selbigen Entwicklung einhergehende Veränderung der gesellschaftlichen Auffassung des ¿Kultur¿-Begriffes an sich sollen durch eine eingehende Analyse von Primär- und Sekundärliteratur der Cultural Studies vorgestellt und diskursanalytisch betrachtet werden. In reiner Theoriearbeit sollen auf der einen Seite die Autoren und Pioniere der Cultural Studies vorgestellt werden und die Grundzüge der politischen Tradition dieser Wissenschaftstheorie nachgezeichnet werden. Auf der anderen Seite sollen die Nachbetrachtungen der Methoden und Paradigmen, die für die weitgefächerten Anwendungsgebiete der Cultural Studies typisch sind im zweiten Teil der Arbeit vorgestellt werden. Da die Cultural Studies als politische Wissenschaft verstanden werden muss, können die historischen und gesellschaftspolitischen Veränderungen nicht von der Analyse der Methoden getrennt werden, vielmehr müssen die Cultural Studies auch in ihrer Nachbetrachtung immer in diesen Kontext eingebunden werden, um ihrem selbstverordneten politischen Auftrag und ihrer Selbstreflexivität gerecht werden zu können. Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich ausschliesslich mit der Auseinandersetzung der Cultural Studies mit sich selbst und in der Retrospektive durch Autoren, welche die allgemeine Grundzüge dieser Theorietradition beschreiben wollen sowie den grossen politischen und gesellschaftlichen Rahmenbedingungen, praktische Anwendungsbeispiele für die Arbeit der Cultural Studies im wissenschaftlichen Feld sind nicht berücksichtigt worden.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2009 im Fachbereich Medien / Kommunikation - Interkulturelle Kommunikation, Note: -, Otto-von-Guericke-Universität Magdeburg (Institute of Political sciences), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: [...] In this paper, an analytical method will be employed to find out why intolerance sometimes exists in multicultural settings and if intercultural dialogue and training can be used to reduce such tensions. The question that will try to be answered is: Can intercultural training using the Four-Ear Model help boost tolerance in multicultural settings? The motivation for writing this paper is based on the prevalent cases of 'unnecessary hatred' that is sometimes expressed though violence in many parts of the world today. Globalization calls for more understanding between people who abide by different cultures and religions. Lack of understanding of other cultures apart from one's own does not make the situation any better hence leading to vices such as racism and bad ethnicity, which translates, into conflicts and sometimes-even war. It is upon the realization that humanbeings could be assisted to co-exist peacefully through intercultural training that this paper is written. A famous theory by a German psychologist, Friedemann Schulz von Thun, will be used in order to better understand the causes of such conflicts and how such problems could be solved. A closer look will be the relations between international students and natives (i.e African students in a German multicultural setting) and how the Four-Ear Model could be utilized to promote tolerance for that case. This is due to the fact that hundreds of students from East Africa travel to Germany every year to acquire further education and many a times, they are faced with problems related to conflict of cultures. Apart from the obvious similarities amongst all human beings-most aspects such as, interaction, entertainment, travel, dressing, eating etc that are everyone's daily activities seem to be different between east African and Germans (European) because a great difference of culture between Germany and East Africa exists. These conflicts are however avoidable and a confortable stay for the students can be achieved through intercultural training which is also the aim of this paper. The first part will constitute definitions for the terms culture and communiation, which will be followed by an analysis of intercultural conflicts and an introduction of the Four Ear Communication Model. Towards the end, will be examples of conflict situations and ther relation to the Four-Ear Model whereby suggestions for avoiding an escalation of the conflict situations will be described. [...]
