Heritage, Tourism, and Nation-building in Post-apartheid South Africa
Original language description
One of the underlying aims of contemporary societies that undergo socio-political transition is, among others, the (re)discovery and re-evaluation of previously denied or marginalised history. The desire to tell the ´other´ side of the story is associated with the need to express new values, to contribute to cultural empowerment, to break through from the troubled past, and to assert a new identity. One of the key instruments in constructing and/or re-discovering collective identity in societies in transition is the heritage whose symbolic function is to legitimate state and nation; hence, the ´ownership´ of heritage serves as an essential component of nation-state.
