Author Information

Prof Takamitsu Jimura holds a PhD in Tourism and Cultural Heritage Management and an MSc in Tourism, Conservation and Sustainable Development. His key research interests include cultural heritage and tourism, tourism marketing and sustainable tourism. Takamitsu is especially interested in exploring the impacts of World Heritage Site (WHS) designation on tourism development, local communities, and heritage management and conservation activities. He is the author of several journal articles and book chapters and has presented his research outputs regularly at international conferences. Many of them were developed from his fieldwork in the UK and Japan. His latest journal article examines the WHS management at Sacred Sites and Pilgrimage Routes in the Kii Mountain Range in Japan. In addition to this book, he is currently working on a monograph that looks at cultural heritage and tourism in Japan and a co-edited book that focuses on ethnography in the context of tourism.
