| summary |
The symbolic construction of the city’s image has two dimensions. One - internal - refers to the image of the city developed and reproduced by its residents. Another - external - is perceived by the people from the outside. In this respect the heritage has a dual role to play: it is the central focus of the visitors activities whilst at the same time being a fundamental element in the construction of local community identity. The above issues are discussed in the context of £ódŸ, which - like many other post-industrial cities - faces the problem how to handle the heritage and to create a new positive image, which is of crucial importance in constant competition for new investments. |
