Abstract
How do we learn about the ways and cultures of other countries? The obvious answer would be to collect information when visiting them. Every nation has its ways and every nation has modes of self-presentation. The repertoires used to attract tourists are a huge industry. Tourist sights, souvenirs, museums and galleries are all staged to attract attention. Ironically, this particular industry, which is aiming at presenting a nation’s local characteristics, comes in formats which are global: if you are a competent tourist in one country, you can ‘do every country’ as long as you stick to the conventions of tourism.
