Beyond the mirror: social space, attached space and bathymetry for a sustainable planning in Coastal Tourist Territories (CTT's). Towards a characterization of the attraction potential

Abstract

Urban actions in social spaces of coastal tourist territories (CTT's) is conditioned by needings to enhance their distinctive characteristics, and making them culturally recognizable for tourist experience, in order to create an attractive and distinctive image that develops a competitive tourist advantage. However, the environmental impacts have been serious, so the production of social space in coastal tourist territories (CCT's) requires an integration between emerged territory, considered from various fields, and submerged support, thus overcoming the classical notion of social space and evolve towards an expanded social space, attached and digital, complex and enriched, and from these categories widening to propose a relational reading from the potential of attraction.
