The School of Service Management (SSM), in conjunction with EPOCH
from the Brighton Business School, are proud to announce they are
hosting the annual ATLAS conference. This is the first time the
conference has been held in England and thus it is expected that
approximately 150+ delegates from ATLAS Europe and EPOCH as well
as others from around the world will attend the event.
The idea behind this conference is to provide an intellectual space
to explore the numerous issues that exist between the 'selling'
and 'telling' of cultural heritage through tourism. The conflicts
range from purely commercial (i.e. competition for space between
residents and tourists) and the more esoteric aspects of how and
who makes visual, political and cultural representation of local
people. The four streams are interconnected so as to provide a coherent
logic to the proceedings yet diverse enough to allow for a wide
range of multidisciplinary papers that will enable lively debate
and provide new insights into this complex area.
