THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TOURISM AND COMMODIFICATION: A CONCEPTUAL APPROACH

Bu araştırma, küreselleşme, kültürel homojenleşme ve heterojenleşme kavramlarının altını çizerek, metalaşmanın kültür üzerindeki olumlu ve olumsuz etkilerine odaklanmakta ve turizm ve metalaşma ilişkisine karşılaştırmalı bir bakış açısı getirmektedir. Çalışmanın amacı, turizm ve metalaşma ilişkisini incelemek ve metalaşmaya neden olan temel öğeleri anlamak için bir model önerisi sunmaktır. Alanyazında konu ile ilgili bir uzlaşı olmaması araştırmayı bu kavramlara açıklık getirmesi bakımından önemli kılmaktadır. Araştırma, hem homojenleşmenin hem de heterojenleşmenin metalaşmaya yol açtığını ve bu döngünün bir yandan kültürlerin canlı kalmasına, çeşitlenmesine, yenilenmesine ve devam etmesine; diğer yandan da otantikliğin kaybolmasına, bozulmasına ya da yok olmasına neden olduğunu ileri sürmektedir

TURİZM VE METALAŞMA İLİŞKİSİNE KAVRAMSAL BİR YAKLAŞIM

By underlining the phenomena of globalization, cultural homogeneity and heterogeneity, this paper focuses on the positive and negative effects of commodification on culture, and tries to bring a comparative perspective on the relationship between tourism and commodification. The purpose of the study is to examine the relationship between tourism and commodification, and propose a conceptual model to understand the leading patterns that cause commodification. The lack of a clear consensus in the literature makes this study’s attempt for conceptual clarification significant. The research claims that both cultural homogeneity and heterogeneity create commodification, and that this cycle helps cultural values to revive, diversify, renew and remain on the one hand, while causing a loss of authenticity, deterioration or degeneration on the other
