Tourism Imaginaries at the Disciplinary Crossroads

’Tourism exists within and between momentary realities and ever-accelerated flows of images and ideas. This insightful volume deepens our understandings of tourism and its transformative power of people and places through a critical engagement with collective representations, their circulation and influences. Importantly it draws upon extensive disciplinary perspectives and international cases to offer a rich and valuable addition to the tourism studies literature.’ Mike Robinson, University of Birmingham, UK ’This volume is an original effort to revive the multi-faceted concept of imaginaries and turn it into the hub of a wide spectrum of disciplinary and theoretical approaches, while documenting its relevance by a rich variety of empirical studies from many parts of the world. It should be of interest for anyone concerned with innovative post-disciplinary theorizing, as well as for practitioners engaged in tourism destination development.’ Erik Cohen, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel
