Otherness, Othering and Space in Tourism Futures
Channel View Publications (Verlag)
978-1-84541-932-5 (ISBN)
This book critically examines the concepts of otherness and othering in tourism, investigating how human and non-human actors are perceived and positioned within tourism spaces. It offers theoretical insights on tourism futures, spatial entanglements between humans and non-humans and practical case studies from researchers and practitioners. Drawing from posthumanist theory and its affirmative ethics, it challenges traditional anthropocentric views, emphasising relationality, justice and sustainability in tourism development. The volume integrates future studies and theories to explore emerging trends, critical reflections and possible utopian and dystopian scenarios for the future of tourism. It is a valuable resource for students, researchers and professionals in tourism and leisure studies, geography and anthropology, as well as those exploring posthumanism, the spatial turn in the social sciences and critical tourism studies.
