Abstract

This case study explores the tension between two contrasting models of culture in Girona based on fieldwork conducted with Fal-lera Gironina, a popular culture group that performs the municipal festive imagery. The festival model of Girona City Hall pivots around the city center and strives to attract tourists from beyond Girona and Catalonia. Meanwhile, popular culture's festa model is local, centered on community participation and community building. Whereas the former seeks economic gain, the latter depends on people collectively contributing their time without economic motivation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
