Sažetak
Jewish heritage tourism is a new form of niche tourism which appeared in Europe in the 1990s because of a renewed understanding of cultural and historical values of Jewish heritage. By its inclusion in tourism, Jewish heritage becomes a visible component in destinations, which leads to the renovation of synagogues, opening of Jewish museums, organization of festivals, but also to the gentrification of neglected Jewish quarters in many European cities. The goal of this paper is to analyse the most common methods, the selection of stakeholders, elements, research locations and spatial scope used in studies of Jewish heritage tourism. The analysis includes 28 scientific papers from databases and focuses on the research methods used in those papers. Results have shown that the most common methods used in studies of Jewish heritage tourism are content analysis and interviews. These methods proved to be suitable for determining the state and representation of Jewish heritage in a destination, while for a higher level of integration of Jewish heritage in tourism, it is more appropriate to use other methods.
