O presente trabalho tem o objetivo de analisar como a relação entre identidade, memória e conservação podem contribuir para o desenvolvimento do turismo utilizando elementos do patrimônio cultural do Monumento Natural Os Monólitos de Quixadá. Para isso, desenvolveram-se processos de investigação calcados principalmente em uma abordagem qualitativa com metodologia baseada na análise de conteúdo. Utilizou-se de pesquisas bibliográficas, em fontes documentais e empíricas. Essas consistiram em uma pesquisa de campo indagada a três grupos determinados pelo pesquisador que foram: da comunidade local inseridas na referida Unidade de Conservação (UC) (35 entrevistas), dos governos locais (5) e da iniciativa privada (10) envolvidos com o turismo e a cultura. E a partir dessa averiguação, identificaram-se aspectos da memória coletiva que contribuiu para conhecer a história local e determinando, dessa forma, quais os bens culturais na visão desses grupos que são representativos à cidade e que formam a identidade quixadaense constituindo no seu patrimônio. O trabalho é estruturado em três capítulos: Turismo nas Unidades de Conservação e sua relação com a problemática de estudo; Apreciação do Legado Histórico e sua Importância para o Desenvolvimento Local: O caso de Quixadá/CE; A Herança dos Monólitos de Quixadá: Reflexões, Impactos e Transformação Turística. Em suma, diz-se que as discussões colocadas em tela são referentes a um contexto dialético e subversivo entre grupos sociais que refletem em uma transformação antagônica dos valores culturais existentes nessas áreas protegidas que são permeados pela memória e identidade da população ao longo do tempo acarretando no fator depreciativo da conservação do patrimônio local. Por fim, entende-se que para ocorrer o desenvolvimento sustentável do turismo com enfoque na cultura é imprescindível que a relação entre memória, identidade e conservação se concretize na sociedade local. Tourism in the light of cultural heritage: an approach on the identity, memory and conservation of Monoliths Quixada (CE) (Brazil) ABSTRACT The aim of this work to examine how the relationship between identity, memory and conservation can contribute to the development of tourism using elements of the cultural heritage of Quixada.

Cultural and natural heritages are considered invaluable resources, creating a unique tourist attraction for each country. However, knowing how to use this heritage for sustainable tourism development, while preserving and promoting the heritage value for future generations is not a simple task. This article focuses on the values of cultural heritage and the importance of maintaining and promoting it while integrating with the environment for the development of society. It discusses the current state of cultural heritage preservation and promotion in Vietnam, showing examples of development with disregard to the heritage and the environment, why it is necessary to have sustainable development in active culture conservation, as well as the relationship between the preservation, promotion of the cultural heritage and the socio-economic development and the environment. A perspective on the cultural heritage value in sustainable development is also given. Through the reading of supporting materials and the comparison of survey data, it is clear that the preservation of cultural values not only contribute directly to the socio-economic development of a country similar to Vietnam, but also to help create new values in later generations. Therefore, it is concluded that a sustainable approach to the conservation of cultural heritages is very important for the future handling of such irreplaceable resources.

Local Involvement

The full involvement of local communities in the tourism sector, not only benefits them and the environment in general, but also improves the quality of the tourism experience. Projects imposed from outside and motivated by the pursuit of rapid economic growth often override local needs, conditions and resources, and result in unacceptable environmental, social and cultural costs. Local involvement is crucial to sustainable and appropriate development, which meets the needs of the local people and safeguards their natural and cultural environments. Thus a local development strategy is essential, especially in disadvantaged areas and countries.

<p class="VARAbstract">Can we preserve cultural heritage and, consequently, the memory of the past? To answer this question, one should look at the digital revolution that the world has gone through in recent decades and analyse the complex and the dialectical relationship between cultural heritage and new technologies. Thanks to these, increasingly accurate reconstructions of archaeological sites and historical monuments are possible. The resulting digital replicas are fundamental to experience and understand cultural heritage in innovative ways: they have complex and dynamic relationships with the original objects. This research paper highlights the importance and the scientific validity of digital replicas aimed at understanding, enhancing and protecting cultural heritage. The study focuses on the virtual reconstruction of the constructive phases, from the mid-15<sup>th</sup> century to date, of one of the most emblematic Gothic-Renaissance buildings in the city of Milan (Italy): the convent of Santa Maria delle Grazie, famous worldwide for hosting Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper painting. This site proved to be an ideal case study because of its troubled and little-known history that led to numerous changes over the centuries. Thanks to a methodological approach based on the analysis of the documentary sources and three-dimensional (3D) modelling, it was possible to outline the chronological succession of the convent transformations; the way in which these overlapped the pre-existing structures was described starting from the Renaissance harmonious and organic interventions, to finally reach 18<sup>th</sup>-19<sup>th </sup>centuries inhomogeneous and incompatible additions. Finally, the research was completed by mapping the 3D models based on the sources used and their different levels of accuracy. The 3D models have thus become a valid tool for checking and verifying the reconstruction hypotheses.</p><p class="VARAbstract">Highlights:</p><ul><li><p>The study focused on the virtual reconstruction of the convent of Santa Maria delle Grazie, one of the most emblematicGothic-Renaissance buildings in the city of Milan.</p></li><li><p>By combining data from documentary sources, architectural treatises, period photos and digital survey, the mainbuilding phases of the convent, from the 15th century to date, were digitally reconstructed.</p></li><li><p>The 3D models are enriched with information about the accuracy of the digital reconstruction, creating 3D databasesthat can be easily consulted and updated.</p></li></ul>

The article focuses on the origins of French culture in Palanga, a Lithuanian seaside resort, that go back to the years of the rule of the Tyszkiewicz family. The emphasis is put on Palanga Botanical Park (created before the end of the nineteenth century) as the most significant trace of French culture present in the resort and the seaside region until now. The specific symbols in the park created according to the will of the Counts Tyszkiewicz reflect the actualities of French culture. The importance of this space in the city is revealed, and Édouard François André’s principles of park creation are discussed in a new context. They are related to the dialogue that has been established between the residents of Palanga, the park, its creator, and his granddaughter Florence André since the first years of the independence of Lithuania. In order to give a meaning to Édouard André’s creation and to the relationship between the two countries, the correspondence between the great-granddaughter of the famous French landscape designer and the former director of the park, Antanas Sebeckas, is disclosed. It reflects the endeavour of these two personalities and its value for the international relations in representing French culture to the public. Florence André’s letters to the author of this article are also an important resource as she explains the reasons why the park plays an essential role in Palanga. It is shown how certain personal life events (Florence André’s wedding ceremony in Palanga, the park created by her great-grandfather) have become an inclusive part of the history of the town and represent intercultural relations and exchanges. The article is also based on some memories and narratives of the members of the local community in which the park features as a symbol and tradition of the city.

The article deals with the relationship between the local community, museum collections, collective memory and the cultural landscape. The ICOM Code of Museum Ethics defines a museum collection as a cultural and natural heritage of the communities from which they have been derived. The collections, especially in regional museums, are inextricably linked to the community. The cultural landscape can be read also as a bridge between the society and natural environment. The cultural landscape is vitally connected with a national, regional, local, ethnic, religious or political identity. Furthermore, the cultural landscape is a reflection of the community's activities. Therefore, private collections are the foundation of the collective memory and empower museums for important social tasks. They offer an opportunity for multilayered interpretation of the past and give a possibility for museums to work on the inclusion of vulnerable groups. The collections could be a mediator and unique tool for recovering of the “broken” memory. In this way certain tragic past events, ignored or only bigotedly mentioned by history, can be re-evaluated.

   Tansen is renowned for its natural settings, historic buildings and a living cultural heritage that have remained, from medieval period until now. By UNWTO statistics,internationally, cultural tourism comprises 39% of the total tourism arrivals. This reaffirms that offering greater access to the cultural and heritage assets would give Tansen a competitive edge over the other tourist destinations and increase its attractiveness as a top tourist destination in Nepal. This article is related to study of how the heritage sites could be revived to make the cultural heritage tourism sustainable and regain Tansen’s economic vibrancy that has been depleting in the recent times. The purpose of the study is to examine the current state of the cultural heritage management in Tansen, to examine the prospect of revitalizing the cultural heritage assets and; to examine the role of the local communities in these aspects. The methods used in the study were site observations, a key informant interview of experts including the city Mayor, tourism entrepreneurs, site mangers and opinion survey of tourists and the local community resident. The study shows that local population has a positive opinion and initial enthusiasm on the emerging tourist arrivals after the restoration of Rani Mahal, but their role is marginalized in the process. This is the key proposition to start an initiative for the local communities to actively participate in tourism development projects. ‘Revitalizing the Rani Mahal heritage’ launched through the Public Private Partnership with support from UNESCO could build the trust amongst the high end international as well as domestic tourist and attract more investments to conserve, protect and promote the heritage capital stocks for the Tansen tourism development.

The Relationship

The relationship between performance and curation has shift ed. A new attitude of fluid and pragmatic alliance has evolved as the sense of an essential antagonism between performance and curation recedes and the two fields discover a shared focus on aspects of social engagement and agency. This article considers an Australian socially engaged art project, the Kandos School of Cultural Adaptation (KSCA), which meshes curatorial and artistic practices in its efforts to reimagine and reanimate the future of a small country town. Employing a wide range of strategies, KSCA works closely with the local community to facilitate collective memory, reflection and social and environmental transformation. Deliberately avoiding traditional lines of artistic and institutional tension, KSCA employs an impure and inclusive approach that is emblematic of emerging forms of activist contemporary art.

The emergence of the Internet and various forms of virtual communities has led to the impact of a new social space on individuals who frequently replace the real world with alternative forms of socializing. In virtual communities, new ‘friendships’ are easily accepted; however, how this acceptance influences cultural identity has not been investigated. Based on the data collected from 443 respondents in the Republic of Serbia, authors analyze this connexion, as well as how the absorption of others’ cultural values is reflected on the local cultural values. The results show that the adoption of others’ cultural values diminished the bond with the local community. The present paper adds to the theory of virtual communities by examining the relationship between the acceptance of an unknown person in a virtual community and its effects on cultural identity. This study contributes to the clarification of the impact that virtual networking has on cultural identity.

<p><em>The function of a city is not only for economic development, but also the city tells the story of the collective memory of its citizens who still exist in their past culture. These culture are the city's cultural resources for tourism. One of them is the Kotatua area of Jakarta, there is a Chinatown area, known as Glodok. This study aims to describe how the Glodok Chinatown cultural area was transformed into an urban tourist destination from the 18th century to the present. This area has many historical attractions or historical tourist destinations such as centers of sacred activity (temples / temples, and churches), as well as profane activity centers (markets, roads / alleys, etc.). Therefore the future development must refer to Law No. 11 of 2010 concerning Cultural Heritage that the use of cultural heritage must be based on protection and development not the other way around. So that it is expected that conservation-based tourism in the Glodok Chinatown area can sustain well without any changes which certainly damage the element of authenticity as Chinatown areas in Jakarta and Indonesia in general.</em><em></em></p><p> </p><p>Keyword: <em>Kotatua, Glodok, City, Cultural Heritage, Tourism</em></p>

This research study aims to approach and identify the phenomenon of illegal housing in Fez by highlighting the most important factors and mechanism contributing to its origins, and then the most important stages it has learned, as well as the most important interventions and strategies the country has adopted for its structure. In order to approach this subject in an academic way, we have based on the curriculum, because of its importance in studying the various relationships and interactions between the accelerating rise of demographic growth due mainly to the natural increase of the population and rural migration, The rise in housing demand, while the old town was filled by the running-up of its property and the rise of the new city's housing, brought about the emergence of the illegal housing phenomenon with the margins of Fez. We have also found the most important findings and recommendations in this study, which we include as follows: Despite the measures taken to find solutions to the problem of illegal housing in Fez, especially in the north-eastern part of the city, there are still several problems in the economic, social and environmental levels, and we suggest that: Integration of all the illegal neighbourhoods in Fez through its structure and the provision of various basic facilities. – reasonable support for the local community budget for its effective contribution to financing programs for the illegal housing restructuring, as well as for expanding its powers at the level of the intervention strategy. To reduce the overlapping of the competence of the actors in the field of structuring and to encourage coordination among them to make the operation a success. The State must be aware that the phenomenon of illegal housing is an inevitable reality and must, therefore, have the effective will to address it through the revitalization and support of economic and social housing programs with respect to quality factors in construction.                       To develop the city's Susioeconomic projects in general, especially in illegal neighbourhoods, with a view to operating dormant units to contribute to financing the restructuring and housing programs. The increase in compensation for families living in buildings threatened with the collapse in return for empty-houses for rehousing. Support, development and evaluation of traditional activities with a view to achieving local development. -at the environmental level, encourage investment in creating green spaces consistent with the population. Participation of civil society in urban restructuring and rehabilitation projects. In order to accelerate the implementation of the plans and strategies adopted (village development strategy, human development projects, green plan... The aim of economic and social advancement for the rural world is to reduce or rather reduce rural migration toward the city.
