Authenticity in Tourism
Take a food product or practice that is internationally popular and trace its trajectory from source culture to one host culture, with a focus on the glocalisation of the product (or practice) and the role of media in facilitating its glocalisation Remember to: • Refer specifically to the models of glocalisation in the assigned and recommended readings to demonstrate your understanding of the process. • Show with concrete examples how the product or practice has become part of the food habits of the host culture you have chosen. • Related concepts: foodways; cultural diffusion And before you commit to writing about a particular food, do a bibliographical search food. It’s very hard to write a good paper on this topic without the right resources first.
