Abstract:
Traditionally social and cultural accounts of tourism have limited their analytical gaze to the spaces and places where tourism is performed. This book scrutinizes the multiple ways in which tourism emerges in people's everyday lives and the everyday appears in people's tourist' lives by tracing out the mobilities, networks and flows between 'home' and 'away' in tourist performances
