Abstract

El presente trabajo contextualmente se encuentra estructurado para dar una discusión filosófica sobre el problema de la autenticidad, en un mundo globalizado. La tecnología y los avances de la modernidad han creado las condiciones para la expansión del sistema turístico como hoy lo conocemos. El concepto de la autenticidad permite la creación de segmentos, como si fuesen stocks, de mercancías que permiten comprar y vender tradiciones, historias, hasta etnicidades. En este trabajo consideramos a la autenticidad como un proyecto imposible pues solo opera como categoría de mediación entre el self y su espacio.
