Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Jenny Chio is assistant professor of anthropology and associated faculty in film and media studies at Emory University.A Landscape of Travel is about China becoming a nation that travels, and one way of traveling is to be a tourist.... Tourism is of course only one mode through which China's mobility expresses itself, and we must remember that most villages have no tourists at all. But if we want to understand why tourists see and experience what they do... and how this reflects China as a nation that travels, [this book] is both delightful and essential.
