“…The Nazi tourism project described above guaranteed contact with pure German soil, as did inter-war Austrian tourism, which saw the double alchemy of having urbanites in the countryside refreshing their bodies and recapturing their heritage, while simultaneously enlightening the rural regions with modern ideas. 70 For some domestic parties, simply providing access to once-roiling provinces is a political victory, legitimising territorial pacification. Middleclass Colombians applauded the Uribe regime for quelling domestic turmoil and making the national landscape safe for travel again.…”

Despite tourism being one of the largest industries in the world and key to the economies of many countries, there has been little effort to systematically connect the nation-state to global circuits of tourism. Most theoretical work centres around international flows of capital and issues of policy choice, sidelining how states as sovereign, territorial institutions are constructed through global travel. Using a constructivist approach to the state, the present paper redresses these gaps by building a theory of the state-tourism nexus that synthesises multiple historic and contemporary examples, demonstrating the major mechanisms connecting tourism to the global institutionalisation and positioning of states. Including both domestic and foreign travel, this theoretic illustrates how travel flows are useful for state leaders in constituting, imagining, legitimising and territorialising the nation-state.

“…43 More than just an "imagined" landscape, therefore, the popularity of the Alps after 1918 became an integral part of the Austrian economy, celebrated as a lived experience, whose position as a national landscape was closely tied to its new accessibility through mountaineering clubs and touristic ventures. 44 Particularly in Tyrol and in lieu of alpine clubs, this landscape also became increasingly exclusive: as Lisa Silverman has outlined, hiking clubs saw the introduction of anti-Jewish policies (Arierparagraphen) as early as 1921, coinciding with the blaming of Jews for the loss of the war. 45 Closely tied to models of German-Catholic identity, the Alps thus also anchored reactionary politics in the national landscape.…”

This essay assesses the role of regionalism in interwar Austrian painting with a focus on the Tyrolean painter and architect Alfons Walde (1891–1958). At a time when painting was seen to be in crisis, eclipsed by the deaths of prominent Viennese artists such as Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele, regionalism offered an alternative engagement with modern art. As the representative of a wider regionalist movement, Walde paved the way for a clearly identifiable image of rural Austria without foregoing the modernization process that took place in the Alps at the time. Filtering essential elements of local culture and synthesizing them with both a modern formal language and “modern” topics, most significantly ski tourism, he created a regionalism that reverberated beyond the narrow confines of his home province and caught particular momentum during the rise of the Austrian Ständestaat in the 1930s. Moving in between regional and national significance, Walde's work underlines the essential position of the region in Austria after 1918 and conveys that an engaged regionalism that responded to the rapid cultural and political changes taking place became a significant aspect of interwar Austrian painting.

“…Coffee has become affordable ( Fig. 5) and fashionable, and leisure in Viennese coffee houses with a cup of coffee and a fresh newspaper has become an attribute of involvement in a progressive European culture (Peniston-Bird 2005). So, in the second half of the 19 th century, the foundation of the Lviv coffee subculture was laid.…”

<p>W ostatnich latach we Lwowie wzrosło zainteresowanie turystów jedną z form turystyki gastronomicznej (kulinarnej) – turystyką kawową. Jest ona rozwijana nie tylko w oparciu o ciekawe, opracowywane przez wiele dekad receptury i przepisy dotyczące przygotowania oraz serwowania kawy, lecz także przez słynne kawiarnie. W artykule opisano etapy rozwoju turystyki kawowej we Lwowie od dziewiętnastego stulecia do 2020 r. Omówiono koncepcje i pojęcia związane z tą formą turystyki, zidentyfikowano grupy docelowe zainteresowanych nią osób. Scharakteryzowano też cechy i ważne elementy zasobów wykorzystywanych do rozwoju turystyki kawowej we Lwowie oraz sposób jej funkcjonowania. Szczególną uwagę zwrócono na działania lokalnej społeczności i branży, współpracujących na rzecz opracowania strategii rozwoju, obejmującej promocję, rozszerzanie specjalistycznej infrastruktury, kreowanie produktów turystycznych – specjalistycznych towarów i usług, a także wydarzeń związanych z turystyką kawową. Celem tej strategii jest stworzenie jak najlepszych – przyjaznych zarówno dla mieszkańców, jak i dla turystów – warunków pobytu, umożliwiających zaprezentowanie na skalę światową ponad dwustuletniej wieloetnicznej kultury kawowej Lwowa, osadzonej w jego historycznym centrum wpisanym na listę światowego dziedzictwa UNESCO. W artykule zestawiono reprezentatywne dane statystyczne i dane dotyczące stanu oferty turystyki kawowej we Lwowie oraz omówiono wyniki badań sondażowych dotyczących funkcjonowania turystyki kawowej we Lwowie.</p>
