ABSTRACT

Chapter 6 continues the quantitative comparisons commenced in Chapter 5. Cross-tabulations were derived using SPSS: the categories of ‘national’ and ‘dissonant’ sites and specific genres defined in Chapter 4 and cross-tabulated with the visitor responses summarised in Chapter 5. While certain registers are not necessarily confined to specific genres, nonetheless, there are registers of engagement that dominate at specific genres of sites that are consistent regardless of national contexts. This result underpins the identification of the types of performances of heritage-making that occur or dominate at different genres of site and are discussed in Part III of the book (Chapters 8–13).
