EMERGING VOICES FOR ANIMALS IN TOURISM. Dieser Artikel ist nicht verfügbar.EMERGING VOICES FOR ANIMALS IN TOURISM

While the study of animal-human interactions within the context of tourism has been explored in a greater number and diversity of ways within the last decade, the discourse remains divided between traditional tourism academia and outside disciplines "looking in." Tourism academia has borrowed philosophical, ethical, gender studies, sociological, ecological conservation, and economic lenses to explore animals in tourism; however, collaboration with authors external to tourism studies remains few.

This edited volume strengthens the bridge between tourism academia and other disciplines by highlighting the fresh perspectives, emerging methodologies and innovative interdisciplinary conventions at the forefront of animals in tourism research, whilst critically working towards more ethical human-animal interactions within the tourism and leisure space. Split into four parts "emerging motivations," "emerging cultures," "emerging narratives," and "emerging reflections," this book offers readers a rich text grounded in progressive scholarly praxis including:

• Research focussed on a wide range of animal taxa, geographic locations, and touristic contexts to help move the conversation toward multi-faceted solutions.
• An eclectic selection of methodological approaches from multispecies ethnography to storytelling, literary and media analyses and participant survey that showcases the emerging interdisciplinary practices.
• Representation of emerging voices from various fields and disciplines around the world.

This unique text will be widely applicable to scholars working towards equitable human-animal interactions within tourism.
