| Итог: | The archeological richness of the state of Oaxaca, the wide variety of local art, crafts and festivities, the ethnic and linguistic diversity of its people and the perception of its capital as an “indigenous” and “colonial” city are characteristics that have been used consistently to encourage tourism while disregarding other potential paths towards economic and cultural development.The almost exclusive focus on this heritage as a tourist attraction has greatly influenced the political decisions and actions taken by governing offices in numerous spheres; these range from public budgeting for education and culture to urban and architectural development where its influence is particularly noticeable, as evidenced by related regulations, public works, infrastructure and services.An examination of these developments in the city of Oaxaca during the 20th century illustrates the negative consequences that tourism, as well as the exploitation of a cultural heritage, can have on the development of cities with similar characteristics. |
