'Tourism: A Guide represents the best new work in the study of contemporary
culture. An original thinker and lively writer, Franklin charts the moving
edge of a field that is racing to keep up with its transforming object.
Responding to changes in the nature of tourism itself, Franklin redefines
the very subject of tourist studies and demonstrates the value of embodied
and performative approaches to tourism as a feature of everyday life.
Tourism: A Guide is essential reading' - Barbara Kirshenblatt-Gimblett, New York University, Author of Destination Culture: Tourism, Museums and Heritage
Tourism is a rapidly growing area of student enrolment. Lecturers and students who have waited patiently for an up-to-date, lucid and indispensable teaching and research text, need wait no more. This book is a matchless guide to understanding the theory, practice, development and effects of tourism.
Tourism: An Introduction:
- equips students with a critical perspective of the central processes of tourism and the relationship between tourism and culture
- places tourism at the heart of modern life rather than as a peripheral feature added on after work
- illuminates the relationship between tourism and nation formation, citizenship, consumerism and globalization
- reveals the ritual, performative and embodied dimensions of tourist experience
This book offers readers a major synthesis of modern thought on tourism. It breaks the mould of approaching tourism as a self-contained, compartment of contemporary life and treats it as a major and exciting cultural phenomenon. This is a landmark work in the study of tourism.
Adrian Franklin is the editor of the acclaimed journal Tourist Studies (SAGE Publications).
