Tourism, Consumption and Representation : Narratives of Place and Self, Hardback Book

Tourism, Consumption and Representation : Narratives of Place and Self Hardback

Edited by Kevin (University of Plymouth, UK) Meethan, Alison (University of Plymouth, UK) Anderson, Steve (University of Plymouth, UK) Miles

Hardback

Description

This book addresses the practices of consumption in tourism, a major theme in the sociology of tourism.

To date, most tourism analysis has tended to concentrate on the production of tourist space, and assume that tourism consumption simply mirrors the intentions of the producers.

By focussing on a number of relevant sub-themes, such as age, gender, religion and sexual orientation, the chapters within this book critically examine such assumptions in terms of the interplay between the production and consumption of tourist spaces, and how patterns of tourism consumption are negotiated on an individual level.
