Delimiting leisure and culture towards a new definition of leisure property

By: Contributor(s): Language: English Series: Journal of Retail and Leisure Property ; 4(4) 2005, 313-323(11)Publication details: 2005Subject(s): Summary: Argues that while leisure has gained increasing recognition as a property sector, the definition of this sector has been narrowed to such an extent that it is now hard to distinguish from the retail sector. Using Pratt's cultural production model allied to the Standard Industrial Classification system, the paper suggests that, unlike retail, leisure activity represents a nexus between production, distribution, reproduction and consumption that is currently not reflected by common understandings of leisure property.
