Este artículo aporta una mirada interdisciplinaria donde convergen geografía y turismo. Los procesos de patrimonialización que llevan a la valorización turística de recursos presentes en espacios periféricos del capitalismo global, reproducen las tensiones que genera la relación local-global, al imponer procesos de patrimonialización vinculados a la conquista española en Trinidad (Cuba) que evocan la lógica global de otro momento histórico, dónde la organización del territorio también se realizó en función de intereses ajenos al ámbito local. En este marco, el objetivo del trabajo es reflexionar sobre cómo el patrimonio es impuesto desde una mirada externa, que valoriza el patrimonio tangible heredado de la colonización española e invisibiliza los rasgos de la identidad africana, que aportaron los esclavos negros a la conformación del espacio latinoamericano. Se adopta la multiescalaridad como recurso metodológico que permite identificar los actores sociales -situados a diferentes escalas- implicados en procesos de activación patrimonial, complementado con revisión bibliográfica e interpretación de informes elaborados por organismos internacionales (UNESCO; ICOMOS). El resultado obtenido del estudio de caso "Trinidad y el Valle de los Ingenios" presenta evidencias concretas de esta interacción que pone de manifiesto cómo ámbitos locales son reconfigurados a partir de acciones provenientes de la esfera global.

This article provides an interdisciplinary point of view where geography and tourism converge. Patrimonialization processes that lead to tourist valorization of resources present in peripheral spaces of global capitalism, recreating tensions generated by local-global relationship, imposing patrimonialization processes related to spanish conquest in Trinidad (Cuba) that evoke global logic of another historical moment where the organization of territory was also carried out according to foreign interests on the local sphere. In this framework, the aim of this article is to illustrate how heritage is imposed from an external point of view, which values the tangible heritage inherited from spanish colonization and makes it invisible some features of african identity, which black slaves contributed to shaping latin american space. Multiscalarity is adopted as a methodological resource that allows us to analyze/ identify social actors - located at different scales - involved in activation processes, complemented by bibliographic review and interpretation of reports prepared by international organizations (UNESCO; ICOMOS). Results obtained from the case of study "Trinidad y el Valle de los Ingenios" present concrete evidences of this interaction that shows how local environments are reconfigured by actions that come from the global sphere. |
