Abstract
The chapters in this collection weave in and out between these two general conceptions: visiting places that are deemed special, for whatever reason, and the more determined focus awoken by the heritage tourism categorisation (even if applied critically). In so doing the essays keep in play analytical possibilities and theoretical positions that encompass a variety of ways heritage places can be thought of as being 'an encounter', 'an engagement'.
