Routledge - Mobilizing Hospitality: The Ethics of Social Relations

Explore the complex relationship between movement and human connection in Mobilizing Hospitality: The Ethics of Social Relations in a Mobile World. Published by Routledge, this academic volume addresses the growing debate surrounding the concept of mobility in our modern era. By pulling from diverse research in anthropology, geography, sociology, and tourism studies, this book investigates how hospitality functions when we encounter strangers in a mobile society. It provides a deep look into the transnational movement of people, specifically within the contexts of migration and tourism. Readers will gain insight into how hospitality acts as a mechanism for both promoting and policing social encounters. The text examines the ethical implications of these relations and how they can lead to exclusion. This volume is an essential resource for students and scholars looking to understand the intersection of social relations and global movement.
