This text introduces tourism students to concepts drawn from critical theory,
cultural studies and the social sciences. It does so with a light and readable
touch, highlighting the ideas that underlie contemporary critical tourism
studies in a practical and engaging way.

Specifically, the authors examine how post-structuralist thought has led to a
re-imagining of power relationships and the ways in which they are central to
the production and consumption of tourism experiences.

Eleven clear, relevant chapters provide an accessible introduction to tourism
defining, explaining and developing the key issues and methods in this
exciting field.

These topics include:

• Regulating Tourism

• Commodifying Tourism

• Embodying Tourism

• Performing Tourism

• Tourism and the Everyday

• Tourism and the Other

• Tourism and the Environment

• Tourism and the Past

• Tourism Mobilities

• Researching Tourism

A strong teaching text, this will be well received by lecturers seeking an
authoritative, multi-disciplinary book on contemporary tourism and by students
who want a practical, grounded introduction which understands their learning
and research needs.
