Abstract: | This paper explores the ordering process of a seaside resort tourismscape and its hinterland. It is herein argued that the increasingly mobile, savvy and discerning post-mass tourists require an increasingly 'fluid' ordering of the tourist actor-networks which is the main prerequisite for the rejuvenation of a seaside resort. The analyzed obligatory passage points of Palanga show the obsolescence of the conventional notions of centrality in the seaside resort development. |
