Abstract
Faced with new dynamics and new views of the socio‑cultural context of tourism, this essay seeks to carry out a brief reflection and analysis on the relationship between cultural identities and postmodern visions of tourist territories. The aim is to study the social practice of tourism in articulation with its actors, spaces, appropriations and larger social processes. In order to achieve the purpose of this essay, revision and critical analysis of pertinent bibliography on the subject was used, confronting different perspectives and views. Basic constructs built around the concept of cultural identities and their relationship with place and tourism are likewise questioned. Meanwhile, within the field of tourism research, models continue to be replicated where tourism is classified as a predator and banaliser of the local culture. Research along the axis of tourism and cultural geography is advocated to contemplate the new complex concptualisations within the triad of tourism, culture and territory.
