Regimes of Mobility: Imaginaries and Relationalities of Power
ISBN: 9781138013032 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 166 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Mobility studies emerged from a postmodern moment in which global flows of capital, people and objects were increasingly noted and celebrated. Within this new scholarship, categories of migrancy are all seen through the same analytical lens. This book builds on, as well as critiques, past and present studies of mobility. In so doing, it challenges conceptual orientations built on binaries of difference that have impeded analyses of the interrelationship between mobility and stasis. These include methodological nationalism, which counterpoises concepts of internal and international movement...

Tourism Imaginaries: Anthropological Approaches
ISBN: 9781785333354 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. 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...

Envisioning Eden: Mobilizing Imaginaries in Tourism and Beyond
ISBN: 9781845457600 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "This book is the reference for tourism imaginaries academia was waiting for. Based on excellent ethnographic work that disentangles 'glocal' issues, it demonstrates that globalization divides the planet as much as bringing it together. Tourism and the encounters it generates are pertinently analyzed as central pieces of the new anthropology of glocalization." - Maria Gravari-Barbas, Director IREST, UNESCO Chair: Culture-Tourism-Development
"I am very impressed with this book. It is the best ethnography of tour guide training and performance to date. Indeed its probing analyses and its...

Keywords of Mobility: Critical Engagements
ISBN: 9781785331466 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Scholars from various disciplines have used key concepts to grasp mobilities, but as of yet, a working vocabulary of these has not been fully developed. Given this context and inspired in part by Raymond Williams' Keywords (1976), this edited volume presents contributions that critically analyze mobility-related keywords: capital, cosmopolitanism, freedom, gender, immobility, infrastructure, motility, and regime. Each chapter provides an historical context, a critical analysis of how the keyword has been used in relation to mobility, and a conclusion that proposes future usage or...

Envisioning Eden: Mobilizing Imaginaries in Tourism and Beyond
ISBN: 9780857459039 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. As tourism service standards become more homogeneous, travel destinations worldwide are conforming yet still trying to maintain, or even increase, their distinctiveness. Based on more than two years of fieldwork in Yogyakarta, Indonesia and Arusha, Tanzania, this book offers an in-depth investigation of the local-to-global dynamics of contemporary tourism. Each destination offers examples that illustrate how tour guide narratives and practices are informed by widely circulating imaginaries of the past as well as personal imaginings of the future.

Mega-Event Mobilities: A Critical Analysis

Such mega-events are about much more than the sporting competitions themselves. They entail global exposure and intense struggles by different stakeholders. This is the first book to examine sports mega-events from a mobilities perspective. It analyses the mobile construction of global sports mega-events and the role this plays in managing labour, imaginaries, policies and legacies. In particular, the book focuses on the tension between the various mobilities and immobilities that are implied in the process of... Global sports events are rarely far from the public eye.
