Topic: Archaeological tourism

	Van Der Spek
		Intensive archaeological exploration of the area continues to this day, but beyond cursory acknowledgements in the archaeological reports of the employment of local workmen, and beyond persistent allegations of illicit antiquities dealings in popular and fictional archaeological writing, little published information exists which focuses on the contemporary social perspectives of the surrounding archaeological landscape.
		The presence of politically motivated concerns in archaeological practice is not a new phenomenon: the politicisation of archaeological discourse developed alongside the discipline itself (Silberman, 1989:1-11), with politically oriented interpretations of the archaeological past serving the maintenance of the status quo by reference to that past.
		To the extent that tourism revenues are seen as contributing to the upkeep and legitimisation of incumbent governments, attacks on the tourist industry by Islamic extremists were a clear means towards attempts at overthrowing the government.

	Tourism Policy
		In 1991, the State did declare a tourism policy but it did not elicit adequate response from the private sector since the policy contained only a handful of benefits while the implementation was tardy due to legal and administrative constraints.
		While other state Governments made successful efforts in developing tourism within their states, the relative inability of the Gujarat State to harness and develop its full tourist potential may be attributed to a combination of factors such as lack of effective policies, inadequate infrastructure, ineffective marketing and lack of decent facilities for the tourists.
		The tourism will be given the status of industry in order that the facilities and benefits available to the industry are also made available to tourism projects.
