Document Summary
Tourist agency summary mccannel: the upper class are more likely to seek out work displays as a form of touristic entertainment, the tourist gaze changes historically. In earlier times the tourist gaze may have gone in the search for the authentic but postmodern tourists know better and delight in the inauthentic . The second gaze is always aware that something is being concealed from it; that there is something missing from every picture, from every look or glance. This is no less true on tour than it is in everyday life. The second gaze knows that seeing is not belieiving. Even things with which it is intimately familiar. It cannot be satisfied simply by taking leave of the ordinary. The second gaze turns back onto the gazing subject an ethical responsibility for the construction of its own existence. It refuses to leave this construction to the corporation,the state,and the apparatus of touristic representation.
