CIFELLI, Gabrielle  y  PEIXOTO, Paulo. Historical city centres and cultural tourism: pelourinho as an example of a contradictory relationship. Sociologia [online]. 2012, vol.24, pp.35-54. ISSN 0872-3419.

The relationship between tourism, heritage and territorial development is central in the field of contemporary urban planning. Analyzing the case of Salvador da Bahia, in particular, the Pelourinho, based on the Integrated Action Plan of the Historic Centre of Salvador, we discuss and highlight contradictory dimensions of this relationship. In particular, the analysis focuses on the confrontation between a targeted strategy for tourism and for external customers and a strategy that orients the city and its heritage towards its residents.

Palabras clave : Historical city centres; Cultural heritage; Tourism; Pelourinho.
