Inhaltsangabe

With 29 contributors from across Europe and beyond, Tourism and Geopolitics represents a unique resource that examines the relationships between tourism and geopolitics, focusing on experiences drawn from Central and Eastern Europe. It begins by assessing the changing nature of 'geopolitics,' from pejorative associations with Nazism to the more recent critical and feminist geopolitics of social science's 'cultural turn.' The book then addresses the important historical role of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) in geopolitical thinking before exemplifying a range of contemporary interactions between tourism and geopolitics within this critical region.

Edited by a renowned authority on tourism geopolitics, this book:
· Provides the most comprehensive overview of tourism and geopolitics available
· Applies a range of geopolitical concepts and approaches to empirical experiences of tourism and mobility in Central and Eastern Europe
· Embraces contributions from both established and new academic voices.

Pursuing innovative analytical paths, the book demonstrates the interrelated nature of tourism and geopolitics and emphasizes the freshness of this research area. Addressing key principles and ideas which are applicable globally, it is an essential source for researchers, teachers, and students of tourism, geography, political science, and European studies as well as for diplomatic, business, and consultant practitioners.
