  • Abstract:

    Public actions in the field of urban development involve redefining the strategies of sectors as important as culture and tourism; however, these changes in public policies have economic and social consequences for the city. This paper shows the policy carried out in the city of Valencia and how a strategy of modernisation of the city has modified the cultural references, generating competitiveness among the urban tourist offer.
