Inhalt: | This book makes an innovative contribution to understanding the relationships between two of the most significant social and economic phenomena of contemporary society: tourism and migration. This has hitherto been a largely neglected field of research but there is now burgeoning interest in the subject amongst both tourism and population geographers, and a realisation of their shared interests in the changing forms of circulation and temporary mobility, and the increasingly evident impact of economic and cultural globalisation in producing new forms of leisure, working, and retirement lives. In this volume the editors have brought together a number of distinguished contributors from many different parts of the world to explore the many different forms of tourism-migration relationships, paying attention to both the global processes of change and the contingencies of place and space. The book provides an extensive guide to the relevant literature as well as case studies from countries as diverse as Australia, Hungary, Israel, New Zealand, Spain, Sweden, and the United States and discussions of the significance of the Caribbean, Chinese, and Vietnamese diasporas for tourism and migration relationships |
