Zadar, Croatia
Easy-going landscapes
International scientific meeting and workshop in landscape and spatial planning
An expanding tourist demand and the introduction of low-cost carriers in air transport provide great opportunities for Zadar County, but it also has a tendency to the standardization of tourist products and landscapes. The global phenomenon of low cost, high-speed mobility of people, goods and information is interconnected with the growth of serial reproduction of culture. Urban settlements copy the elements of cultural landscapes one from another and it leaves less space for differentiation. The scientific meeting and workshop will discuss some of the topics that regard this new low-cost geography phenomenon.
