Description

Explore the complex relationship between people and the locations they visit in Tourism Mobilities: Places to Play, Places in Play. Published by Routledge, this book examines how various destinations around the world are produced, interpreted, and modified to meet the needs of tourist consumption. Through an analysis of common tourist performances, such as walking, shopping, eating, clubbing, sunbathing, and photographing, the authors investigate why certain locations rise to become global centers of travel while others do not. This work provides a deep look into the ways spaces are remade for play and leisure. Organized into four distinct sections, the text covers Performing Paradise, Performances of Global Heritage, Remaking Playful Places, and New Playful Places. By using a wide array of empirical research and international case studies, this book offers a detailed perspective on the sociological aspects of modern travel and the transformation of global landscapes.
