Performing Tourist Places Hardback
by Jørgen Ole Bærenholdt, Michael Haldrup, John Urry
Part of the New Directions in Tourism Analysis series
Hardback
Description
This book looks at the making and the consuming of places in the contemporary world. Illustrated through various case-studies from Denmark, it considers how places, performances and peoples intersect.
It examines the fascinating circumstances through which visitors to a place, in part, produce that place through their performances.
Places are intertwined with people through various systems that generate and reproduce performances in and of that place.
These systems comprise networks of ’hosts, guests, buildings, objects and machines’ that contingently realize particular performances of specific places.
The studies featured here develop an exciting ’new mobility’ paradigm emerging within the social sciences.
