Tourism has become an important sector in Turkey as a growing source of foreign exchange reserves and employment over the last two decades. An increasing number of foreign tourists makes the Turkish Riviera an area of intense global interaction. According to Arjun Appadurai, the new global cultural economy has to be seen as an overlapping, disjunctive order that can no longer be understood in terms of the existing center-periphery models. This article will explore such disjunctures and deal with the complex “-scapes” of the Turkish Riviera. It aims to look at the relationships among the five dimensions of the global cultural flow: ethnoscapes, mediascapes, technoscapes, financescapes, and ideoscapes. One goal of this review is to examine if the concept of “the Orient” coined by Edward Said still exists within the discourse and the visual imagery of tourism.

Na przestrzeni ostatnich dwóch dekad turystyka stała się najmocniejszą stroną tureckiej gos-podarki, zaś najchętniej odwiedzane miejsca w Turcji są sceną intensywnych interakcji spo-łeczno-kulturowych o charakterze globalnym. Analizując złożoną specyfikę przestrzeni pub-licznej w kurortach na obszarze Riwiery Tureckiej, zastosuję zaproponowany przez Arjuna Appaduraia model bazujący na rozłącznym przepływie kategorii określonych przez autora mianem pejzaży. Głównym celem analizy jest zbadanie czy “Orient” w ujęciu Edwarda Saida nadal istnieje w dyskursie turystycznym i związanym z nim obrazowaniu.
