RT Journal Article SR 00 ID 10.1002/jtr.2341 A1 Lennon, Justin John A1 Tiberghien, Guillaume T1 Kazakhstan gulag heritage: dark tourism and selective interpretation JF International Journal of Tourism Research YR 2020 FD 2020-05 VO 22 IS 3 SP 264 OP 274 AB Kazakhstan holds some of the most significant Gulag heritage sites; however, tourism research remains limited. This article introduces analysis of contrasting sites and considers how some have been developed and others ignored. Selectivity in interpretation is linked to societal amnesia and the collective trauma experienced by the population of Kazakhstan. The article reaffirms the politicization of heritage in this emergent nation. NO Funding Information: British Academy, Grant Number: SRG\170063.
