This is the first book to critically engage with the application of actor-network theory (ANT) in tourism studies. By doing so it challenges approaches that have dominated the literature for the last 20 yrs and casts new light on issues of materiality, ordering and networks in Tourism. It further aims to aid understanding about the approach, its possibilities and limitations as an ontology and research methodology as well as advance its use and research in the field of tourism.
