Index 163 -- Places depend on their reputations for almost everything in the modern world: tourism, foreign investment, the respect and interest of the international media, attracting talented immigrants and students, cultural exchanges, engaging peacefully and productively with the governments of other places. But what can actually be done to understand and measure the reputations of places, and even to influence them? Are they simply 'brand images' like the images of products, that can be influenced at will by the tricks and techniques of commercial marketing? Or are they, as Simon Anholt argues, deeply rooted cultural phenomena that move - if they move at all - very slowly, and only in response to major events and changes in the places themselves? This new collection of essays by the 'father of place branding', Simon Anholt, reveals compelling and essential new thinking on the nature of national reputation." -- Place marketing. 151543 Local Tourism Marketing 284503 Local Branding (Marketing) 204258 Management 249397 Management science 130136 Marketing 131165 Regional economics 157894 Space in economics. 172889 lcc 6 First published G155.A1 General A54 2010 224701 224701 0 0 lcc 0 0 4 4 33 2011-10-03 amazon 34.58 489933 0 General G155.A1 A54 2010 91000000022715 2016-05-27 00:00:00 1 44.58 2011-10-03 6
