This is to the person who was looking for citations of articles that explored the relationship between theme parks and museums-- I came across an article that made some comparisons between Greenfield Village in Dearborn, Michigan and Disneyland which may be of interest to you: August T. Horvath and Lin Bin. "From Reality to Hyperreality: Simulation and Images at Greenfield Village," COMMUNICATION RESEARCH 18:1 (Feb 1991): 103- 114. The authors have a decidedly Marxist outlook. The article also included a short bibliography that referred to several other related works, including J. Baudrillard. Simulations (New York:Semiotext, 1983) D. J. Boorstin. The Image: A Guide to Pseudo Events in America (New York: Atheneum, 1961). M. Wallace. "Visiting the Past: History Museums in the United States," RADICAL HISTORY REVIEW 25 (1981):63-96.
