“…In this interdisciplinary territory conceptualizing the role of the cultural heritage manager is key to understanding their perceptions and the enactment of these perceptions. In the literature, there are different terms with which those who hold responsibility in the decision-making process concerning the management of cultural heritage are indicated, such as 'cultural heritage decision makers' (Ferretti, Bottero, and Mondini, 2014) or 'cultural heritage organization managers' (Honari, Goudarzi, Heidari, and Emami, 2010). In this sense, the work of McKercher, Ho, and du Cros (2005) is particularly noteworthy since it puts tourism in direct connection with the concept of cultural heritage management.…”

Quality in cultural heritage attractions is mainly approached from the visitors' satisfaction perspective, and the literature does not contain a clear definition of quality in the management of cultural heritage sites open to the public. The present study aims to reframe this trend. By way of theoretical contribution, we propose a definition of quality in cultural heritage attractions management based on dimensions such as the capacity of preserving the cultural assets, the ability to communicate effectively their significance, the quality of commodification for visitor use, and the ability to boost intercultural competence and promote intercultural dialogue. Based on the above, an empirical, qualitative study was conducted on the cultural heritage managers' current perceptions of quality. The results suggest that a profound asymmetry exists among practitioners' opinions and practices, and four types of cultural heritage managers were defined with regard to their perception of quality: Reactionary, Reticent, Pragmatic, Enthusiastic. Good ideas are not adopted automatically. They must be driven into practice with courageous patience.

“…Resultantly, their frequent overlapping has contributed to the significant developments in sport tourism, particularly in the developing world context (Fourie & Santana-Gallego, 2011;Tichaawa et al, 2018;Zang et al, 2018), and with specific reference to destinations in the sub-Saharan Africa, where sport is seen as a way of life, in the face of limited socio-economic opportunities. The existing research has equally begun to acknowledge that, in Africa, sport tourism has the potential to ignite and promote the socio-economic restructuring of urban and rural economies (Swart & Bob, 2007;Honary et al, 2010;Lesjak et al, 2017;Tichaawa et al, 2018). In their study, Bob and Swart (2010), for example, identified the crucial part that sport plays in tourism's role as an urban regeneration tool for such destinations, further confirming the symbiotic nature of the two and its relevance thereto.…”
