Sob este contexto, a revis&atilde;o realizada neste ensaio n&atilde;o s&oacute; exp&otilde;e as contradi&ccedil;&otilde;es de MacCannell , mas tamb&eacute;m reconsidera as necessidades de prote&ccedil;&atilde;o aos limiares, ou a dial&eacute;tica de fronteiras, impostas pelos Imp&eacute;rios. Em alguma medida, nossa tese &eacute; a de que a autenticidade encenada, trabalhada por MacCannell , baseia-se no velho etnocentrismo, que considera a Europa como uma cultura evolu&iacute;da, cujo estilo refinado &eacute; corrompido, enquanto as culturas primitivas s&atilde;o vistas como prim&aacute;rias e puras, embora sem polimento. Esse preconceito cunhado pela antropologia do s&eacute;culo XIX ainda persiste, na literatura sobre o turismo.</span></p></td></tr></tbody></table> <!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:LatentStyles
