Tourism Encounters and Controversies (eBook, ePUB)

Ontological Politics of Tourism Development
Redaktion: Jóhannesson, Gunnar Thór; René, van der Duim; Ren, Carina

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Focusing on ontological politics of tourism development, this book examines how different versions of tourism are enacted, how encounters between different versions of tourism orderings may result in controversies, but also on how these enactments and encounters are entangled in multiple ways to broader areas of development, conservation, policy and destination management. Inspired by post-actor-network theory and related research, the studies include the social as well as the material, but also multiplicity and ontological politics when examining controversial matters or events.
