商品簡介
Counter to typical tourism studies that focus on consumers in fixed vacation destinations and activities, Baerenholdt (geography, international development studies, Roskilde U., Denmark) and fellow Danish and UK researchers apply a new paradigm. In case studies in which tourist constructs are likened to tangible but shifting sandcastles, travelers are viewed as shaping their vacation spots via mobile, networked performances. B&w illustrations include maps and tourist "romantic gaze" and "family gaze" performance photos. This research was conducted at the Tourism Research Centre of Denmark, 1999-2003.
