Description
Relaunching Titanic Memory and Marketing in the New Belfast critically examines how the city's heritage is being represented in relation to its iconic past. The authors explore the tension between economic development and a deeper appreciation of the city's complex history, particularly in the context of post-conflict urban planning.
The book considers key questions about the role of memory and meaning in place-making, including how cities balance competing interests and priorities. By focusing on Belfast's unique experience with the Titanic legacy, Relaunching Titanic offers insights that extend beyond local contexts to inform broader debates on city branding, tourism, and urban re-imaging.
