2023     Heritage and Cultural Heritage Tourism. Heritage and Cultural Heritage Tourism: International Perspectives, , Springer
The places that are the foundation of cultural heritage tourism have always been subject to the forces of change. Today, global political and economic pressures include sustainable economic development, cultural heritage management, conflict and reconciliation, as well as environmental and health issues associated with climate change and pandemics. Mangaing sustainable cultural heritage tourism requires effective management and planning, presenting the past, and partnerships at every scale: worldwide, regional, local, and in Indigenous communities in places with colonialized histories. This volume addresses a critical need for contemporary studies of evolving public attitudes about the past, exploring effective ways to present the past and engage the public at local, national, and international levels.

2020     Heritage Discourses in Europe: Responding to Migration, Mobility, and Cultural Identities in the Twenty-First Century. , , Arc Humanities Press
Debates about migration and heritage largely discuss how newcomers integrate into the host societies, and how they manage (or not) to embrace local and national heritage as part of their new cultural landscape. But relatively little attention has been paid to how the host society is changing culturally because its new citizens have collective memories constructed upon different geographies/events, and emotional attachments to non-European forms of cultural heritages. This short book explores how new cultural identities in transformation are challenging the notions and the significance of heritage today in Europe. It asks the questions: How far are contemporary Authorized Heritage Discourses in Europe changing due to migration and globalization? Could heritage sites and museums be a meeting point for socio-cultural dialogue between locals and newcomers? Could heritage become a source of creative platforms for other heritage discourses, better tuned with today's European multicultural profile?
