Özet:

 


This article
underlines two historical analogic approaches as a criticism of the
contemporary mass tourism. It is argued that western hegemony developed
countries may originate contemporary mass tourism. According to historian and
classicist Kagan (2007) two complementary main features of western civilization
are Hellenism and Christianity. This article takes these complementary features
into consideration with Leiper’s (1981) Tourism System’s two main components
demand and supply. These four concepts were discussed using historical
analogies. Demand vs (versus) Christianity (heaven portrayal) were chosen as
the first analogy. Supply vs Hellenism (polis and subjects [helots] specific to
Sparta city state) was proposed as the second analogy. These two analogies may
help to gain a better understanding of mass tourism by means of a critic
approach with regard to its proposed historical roots.
