Cultural Routes and the Legacy of Simón Bolívar in Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela Copyright by George Genung McQueen 2011 The Thesis Committee for George Genung McQueen Certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: Heritage Tourism in Latin America: Cultural Routes and the legacy of Simón Bolívar in Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela APPROVED BY SUPERVISING COMMITTEE: Supervisor: Bjørn Sletto Co-Supervisor: Michael Holleran Heritage Tourism in Latin America: Cultural Routes and the legacy of Simón Bolívar in Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela by George Genung McQueen, BA Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degrees of Master of Science in Community and Regional Planning and Master of Arts The University of Texas at Austin May 2011 Dedication To Vanessa, For sharing this journey. Acknowledgements As much as I have tried to make this project seem like an individual effort to gain knowledge on—or “master”—a given subject, it is really more a testimony of the virtues of knowing and working with many generous people. I am most grateful to my family for their unwavering support and especially to Vanessa Vaughan, who endured the many joys and frustrations of this process. I am also grateful for the help of friends, such as Rosa Donoso (MSCRP ’08) and Simeon Floyd who so graciously shared their home, friends and family in Quito. I am indebted to my advisers Bjørn Sletto and Michael Holleran, whose advice was always timely and challenging. Had Professor Sletto not invited me to help with a research project in Venezuela, this topic would have never entered my mind. Furthermore, had professors Sletto and Holleran not hosted a forum on “Historic Preservation in a Global Context,” I would have not met Jonathan Poston of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, who so graciously recommended me to Don Jones of US/ICOMOS who generously helped me work as an international intern. As a result, Gustavo Araoz, president of ICOMOS, then kindly connected me with other ICOMOS representatives in Ecuador, who in turn opened doors for me in Colombia and Venezuela. I also wish to thank the people and institutions who patiently entertained my research questions: in Ecuador, Alfonso Ortiz Crespo, Dora Arízaga, Wilson Herdoiza, the Ministerio de Turismo, the Instituto Nacional de Patrimonio y Cultura (INPC), and the Ministerio Coordinador de Patrimonio; in Colombia, the Secretaría de Cultura y Turismo of Boyocá; and in Venezuela, María Eugenia Bacci, and the Ministerio de Turismo in Venezuela (MINTUR). May 1, 2011 v Abstract Heritage Tourism in Latin America: Cultural Routes and the legacy of Simón Bolívar in Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela George Genung McQueen, M.S.C.R.P.; M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2011 Supervisor: Bjørn Sletto Co-Supervisor: Michael Holleran Heritage tourism is one of the fastest growing sub-categories of the tourism industry, which is arguably the largest industry in the world. When communities and regions compete for a greater share of the heritage tourism market, the authenticity and integrity of a heritage can be compromised by the way it is represented. One way to represent heritage is a “cultural route,” which has recently been added to definition of “cultural heritage” in the UNESCO World Heritage Convention. The interpretation of a “cultural route,” however, continues to evolve, especially in Latin America. In anticipation of the bicentennial celebration of independence from Spain, two cultural routes were separately inaugurated in 2009: the Ruta del Libertador in Ecuador and Venezuela, and the Ruta Libertadora in Colombia. After providing an overview of the historical, political and cultural contexts that surround these routes, this paper draws upon a website content analysis to explores how national identity, cultural heritage and vi the legacy of Simón Bolívar are represented by the governments of Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela. These observations and analyses show that while both routes represent a shared heritage, the differences in their representations straddle the definitions of “authenticity” and “cultural heritage,” as the Ruta Libertadora in Colombia is a “cultural route” and the Ruta del Libertador in Ecuador and Venezuela is a “cultural tourism route.” However, when considered together, the Ruta del Libertador and Ruta Libertadora are a cultural route that more accurately represents a crucial moment in Latin American history: the liberation of South America from Spain, led by Simón Bolívar, “El Libertador.” vii Table of Contents List of Tables ...........................................................................................................x List of Figures ........................................................................................................ xi Introduction ..............................................................................................................1 How this Topic Chose Me ..............................................................................1 How I Chose this Topic ..................................................................................2 Central Issues ..................................................................................................4 Specific Issue ..................................................................................................5 Research Questions and Methodology ............................................................6 Chapter Overview ...........................................................................................7 Chapter One: Cultural Heritage and Tourism Routes ..............................................9 Cultural Heritage ...........................................................................................10 International Definitions of Cultural Heritage .....................................11 The Commodification of Heritage .......................................................14 Cultural Routes .............................................................................................17 Cultural Routes symposium in Quito, June 2010 ................................19 Difficulties of heritage translation .......................................................21 Examples of Cultural Routes ...............................................................22 Cultural Heritage Tourism ............................................................................25 Promoting economic development ......................................................26 (Re) defining national identity .............................................................28 Challenges with heritage preservation and tourism .............................30 Chapter Two: The Life and Legacy of Simón Bolívar ..........................................31 Biography of Bolívar ....................................................................................33 First Revolution ............................................................................................35 Second Revolution ........................................................................................38 Third Revolution ...........................................................................................39 The Legacy of “El Libertador” .....................................................................40 viii The Significance of Bolívar in Contemporary Culture .................................44 National Identity and Nation-Building .........................................................55 Chapter Three: One Heritage, Two Routes ............................................................59 Ruta del Libertador and Ruta Libertadora ...................................................60 Ruta del Libertador in Ecuador and Venezuela ............................................63 Ruta del Libertador in Ecuador ...........................................................66 Ruta del Libertador in Venezuela ........................................................69 Ruta Libertadora in Colombia ......................................................................73 Tangible and Intangible Heritage ..................................................................76 Chapter Four: Findings and Analysis ....................................................................78 Website Analysis Methodology ....................................................................79 1.

  • View the Enlightenment As a Catalyst for Beneficial Change in the Region
    UNA REVOLUCION, NI MAS NI MENOS: THE ROLE OF THE ENLIGHTENMENT IN THE SUPREME JUNTAS IN QUITO, 1765-1822 Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Beau James Brammer, B.A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2010 Master’s Examination Committee: Kenneth Andrien, Adviser Stephanie Smith Alan Gallay Copyright by Beau James Brammer 2010 Abstract This thesis examines the role the European Enlightenment played in the political sphere during the late colonial era in the Audiencia of Quito. Until the eighteenth century, Creole elites controlled the local economic and governmental sectors. With the ascension of the Bourbon dynasty in 1700, however, these elites of Iberian descent began to lose their power as new European ideas, emerging from the Enlightenment, led to a process of consolidating and centralizing power into the hands of Peninsular Spanish officials. Known as the Bourbon Reforms, these measures led to Creole disillusionment, as they began losing power at the local level. Beginning in the 1770s and 1780s, however, Enlightenment ideas of “nationalism” and “rationality” arrived in the Andean capital, making their way to the disgruntled Creoles. As the situation deteriorated, elites began to incorporate these new concepts into their rhetoric, presenting a possible response to the Reforms. When Napoleon invaded Spain in 1808, the Creoles expelled the Spanish government in Quito, creating an autonomous movement, the Junta of 1809, using these Enlightenment principles as their justification. I argue, however, that while these ‘modern’ principles gave the Creoles an outlet for their grievances, it is their inability to find a common ground on how their government should interpret these new ideas which ultimately lead to the Junta’s failure.

MULTINATIONAL FEDERATION OF COMMUNITY TOURISM IN ECUADOR (FEPTCE) Ecuador Equator Initiative Case Studies Local sustainable development solutions for people, nature, and resilient communities UNDP EQUATOR INITIATIVE CASE STUDY SERIES Local and indigenous communities across the world are advancing innovative sustainable development solutions that work for people and for nature. Few publications or case studies tell the full story of how such initiatives evolve, the breadth of their impacts, or how they change over time. Fewer still have undertaken to tell these stories with community practitioners themselves guiding the narrative. To mark its 10-year anniversary, the Equator Initiative aims to fill this gap. The following case study is one in a growing series that details the work of Equator Prize winners – vetted and peer-reviewed best practices in community-based environmental conservation and sustainable livelihoods. These cases are intended to inspire the policy dialogue needed to take local success to scale, to improve the global knowledge base on local environment and development solutions, and to serve as models for replication. Case studies are best viewed and understood with reference to ‘The Power of Local Action: Lessons from 10 Years of the Equator Prize’, a compendium of lessons learned and policy guidance that draws from the case material.
