It is hard to imagine tourism without the creative use of seductive, as well as restrictive, imaginaries about peoples and places. These socially shared assemblages are collaboratively produced and consumed by a diverse range of actors around the globe. As a nexus of social practices through which individuals and groups establish places and peoples as credible objects of tourism, "tourism imaginaries" have yet to be fully explored. Presenting innovative conceptual approaches, this volume advances ethnographic research methods and critical scholarship regarding tourism and the imaginaries that drive it. The various authors contribute methodologically as well as conceptually to anthropology's grasp of the images, forces, and encounters of the contemporary world. Noel B. Salazar is Research Professor in Anthropology at the University of Leuven, Belgium. He is the author of Envisioning Eden: Mobilizing Imaginaries in Tourism (Berghahn, 2010) and numerous journal articles and book chapters on the anthropology of tourism. He is President of the European Association of Social Anthropologists (2013-2014), Board Member of the Young Academy of Belgium, Chair of the IUAES Commission on the Anthropology of Tourism, and Steering Committee Member of the AAA Anthropology of Tourism Interest Group. Nelson H. H. Graburn is Professor of the Graduate School and Professor Emeritus of Anthropology at the University of California, Berkeley. Among his books and edited volumes are: Ethnic and Tourist Arts (1976), The Anthropology of Tourism (1983), To Pray, Pay and Play: the Cultural Structure of Japanese Domestic Tourism (1983), Tourism Social Sciences (1991), Anthropology in the Age of Tourism (2009), and Tourism and Glocalization: Perspectives in East Asian Studies (2010). He is a founding member of the International Academy for the Study of Tourism.
