| Abstract: | The authors discuss the challenges and opportunities of the heritage tourism product in multi-ethnic post-industrial cities, the city of Birmingham as a case. They examine an initiative aimed at increasing the potential of the city as a leisure tourism destination,analyze the development of an industrial heritage attraction located in an inner city, multi-ethnic neighbourhood. Issues are: how to develop a heritage tourism product which achieves a balance between economic and social goals, is socially inclusive and recognises the needs of minority ethnic groups, and how to develop industrial heritage within the post-industrial context and incorporate a new European identity. |
