Master's Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject Philosophy - Miscellaneous, grade: 2.0, , language: English, abstract: This study analyses how the meaning of landscape in tourism is conceptualised and represented using the example of three UNESCO Biosphere Reserves of the German federal state of Brandenburg, utilising a qualitative social constructivist perspective. Although the term 'landscape' was originally conceived as a geographical concept, it is now a holistic concept that is considered across disciplines, including sociology, psychology, ethnology, landscape ecology and philosophy of nature. According to social constructivist landscape studies, the construct of 'landscape' is the result of socially generated patterns of interpretation and evaluation, based on which an internal synthesis of observed material objects and their relation to symbolic meanings takes place (Kühne, 2019). The thesis answers the following research question: how do the three UNESCO Biosphere Reserves in Brandenburg construct and represent their landscapes through communication with tourists?
