“Rethinking
the Framework of Interdisciplinary cooperation between Cultural Heritage, Local
Economic Development, Tourism and Media”
Over
the past few years, a remarkable increase has occurred in the use of visual and
digital techniques for the research, documentation, management, presentation
and communication of cultural heritage. Printed, video and audio media, as well
as “New Media” got a role of a main measures for preserving and affirming of
cultural heritage, but and as a main tools for promoting of cultural heritage
values as touristic products. This has drastically transformed the way we
capture, store, process, represent and disseminate information.
Using
of “old” and/or “new” media became a necessary tools in educational process
related with anthropology, archaeology, history, art and other humanities and
social sciences. Digital humanities, digital anthropology, 3-D archaeology and
other interdisciplinary studies increased an interest among many scholars,
researchers, students, museum workers, IT programmers, 3D (re)constructors etc.
The
purpose of local economic development is to build up the economic capacity of a
local area to improve its economic future and the quality of life for all. It
is a process by which public, business and nongovernmental sector partners work
collectively to create better conditions for economic growth and employment
generation.
Local
Economic Development, Cultural heritage, Media and Tourism have a lot of common
contact points, interactions and complements. All fields are devoted on
explanation and presentation of cultural values of society. Interdisciplinary
approach among these realms is giving more qualitative results especially on
touristic offers and creation of touristic products. This is extremely
important in a process of indication and mapping of anthropogenic and other
touristic attractions, as well as on presentation of cultural values through
different types of media.
