Other researchers
• 7 PhD students
• 9 collaborating research fellows (from the
Universities of Vigo, Louisville, North Carolina,
Teramo, Coruña, etc.)
4
Research Group Coordination
• Eduardo Gonçalves, an historian and Director of ISMAI’s inhouse tourism research centre CEDTUR, heads the Research
Group, and has significant experience in the coordination of
tourism research teams. Xerardo Pereiro, an anthropologist, is
coordinator of the Thematic Research Line “Tourism &
Development”.
• Researchers, postdoctoral fellows, PhD students and
collaborating researchers from other institutions work
together on (inter)national projects promoted by the group.
• All research projects are designed and developed in close
collaboration with CETRAD’s Board of Directors and, where
appropriate, with CETRAD’s other RGs and TRLs.
5
A new Research Group in CETRAD
• For the period 2015-20, as a result of adjustments to CETRAD’s
organizational matrix, a new research group (RG) has been created
that will focus on issues relating to “Tourism, Identities & Cultural
Heritage”.
• It is constituted by 17 integrated members with PhDs (10 of whom
from ISMAI, CETRAD’s only other formally participating institution, 5
from UTAD, and 2 from the Viana do Castelo Polytechnic), plus 5
collaborating postdoctoral researchers from overseas and national
universities. The core of the RG is provided by researchers dedicated
exclusively to the study Tourism & Cultural Heritage, many of whom
have long experience of working collaboratively in one of ISMAI’s
dedicated research groups. The RG has its own premises (provided by
ISMAI) and excellent technological infrastructure. It also co-manages
an indexed, peer review, international journal (PASOS –
www.pasosonline.org), the quality and impact (2.8/5) of which has
been internationally recognised.
6
Courses, multidisciplinarity & networks
•
•
•
•
•
The RG supports three undergraduate degree courses in Tourism – at ISMAI, at the IPVC
(Polytechnic Institute of Viana do Castelo) and at UTAD, one of which (the IPVC) has WTO
(World Tourism Organization) certification 2005 -15.
It also supports a Masters in Tourism, Heritage & Development (currently taught at ISMAI,
and to be jointly offered in future), a Masters in Innovative Tourism Development (at the
IPVC) and is currently drafting a proposal for a joint ISMAI-UTAD-IPVC doctoral programme in
Tourism & Cultural Heritage.
The RG’s commitment to the interdisciplinary study of Tourism & Cultural Heritage is total,
and its research strategy is closely allied with CETRAD’s overall aims and priorities. It actively
deploys skills from a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds, from sociology, anthropology,
history and archeology to economics and management.
The RG participates in networks related to the study of socially sustainable and responsible
tourism, cultural tourism (RITA, ACMS, CINVESTAV, EUCALAND, ATLAS and its researchers are
members of Special Interest Groups including Gastronomy and Tourism, Cultural Tourism,
Events and Religious Tourism & Pilgrimage, Cittaslow, TRINET, IBERTUR, the Anthropology of
Tourism Network, the International Institute of Gastronomy, Culture, Arts and Tourism, etc.).
The Group also continues to develop active linkages between the academic and business
worlds, so as to better appreciate and respond to the complexities of the multiple processes
that drive tourism.

Central research issues
• The RG places special emphasis on the roles of
culture, nature, heritage and territory, as well as on
how culture (through key social anthropological and
socio-economic issues) interacts with commercial
aspects of tourist travel and the heritage process
and, in doing so, constructs and reconstructs
identities and mercantilises hitherto unmarketed
cultural commodities, assets and amenities.
9
10
Aims of the group
a) From the standpoint of culture as a product, and taking cultural
tourism and heritage tourism as being largely synonymous, a priority
focus will be on how heritage tourism (in general, including both
tangible and intangible aspects) and the planning and management of
tourism based on heritage attractions (in particular) can be oriented
more towards a creative tourism.
b) Using a largely social anthropological perspective, the RG will also
direct its attention to issues of cultural heritage and social memory,
seen as a social construction and as a meta-cultural symbolic
representation of identities.
c) The RG will also analyse the mutual interpenetration of the tourism
system, cultural policy and heritage management, i.e., the impact of
cultural tourism consumption on the form and location of cultural
attractions, cultural dynamics and stakeholder relations within the
11
tourism system as a whole.
The “Tourism & Development” TRL
•
•
•
The Thematic Research Line (TRL) on Tourism & Development has an inter- and
multi-disciplinary perspective aimed at stimulating interaction between the
various disciplines that perceive tourism as an important field of study. The TRL’s
proposed research emphasises: a) the effects of tourism on local societies and
tourist destinations; and b) tourist uses of culture and cultural heritage,
understood from a dynamic and processual perspective and taking into account
UNWTO’s global code of ethics for tourism.
The TRL’s overall challenge will be to generate and transfer results that help to
build an alternative, sustainable and ethical tourism based on solidarity. Naturally,
the TRL will integrate other analytical concerns into its work, such as the effects of
tourism, new culture-nature tourism trends, tourism and new ruralities, border
tourism, museums and tourism, tourism and identities, culture, food, crafts and
souvenirs, the tourist experience, conflicts over ownership of cultural heritage
tourism, tourism and the reinvention of cultural traditions, deruralization, tourism
policies for competitiveness and sustainability, and responsible tourism.
Furthermore, the TRL intends to develop and strengthen its work on new research
methodologies in tourism, tourism education and management, tourism and the
imaginary, and on tourism and visual culture.
