The (over)touristification of European historic cities: a relation between urban heritage and short-term rental market demand
Abstract
In this chapter, I wish to highlight the critical relationship between heritage management issues and building environment transformation. I argue that such a relationship is directly expressed through the tourism phenomenon, and it should be measured through the economic dimension of the short-term rental market, which introduces this rule of thumb: if there is a lack of demand, the brand of the city is weak; if there is too much demand, the city is endangered by overtourism processes. The potential to measure this tourism phenomenon could become a crucial methodological asset for further research in heritage studies – especially in the context of the ongoing touristification of historic European cities.
