A new field in language and communication studies - 'the
sociolinguistics of tourism' is concerned with how language
constitutes and frames identity, power and social difference in the
context of tourism and mobility, as central hallmarks of
globalization. Bringing together sociolinguistics/discourse
analysis, critical tourism studies and contemporary social-economic
theory, the authors demonstrate how tourism is one of the major
forces shaping the social, political and cultural processes in
today's world.With media-based and interactional data - TV holiday
programmes, postcard messages, service encounters, interviews with
tourists and guided tours - from a wide spread of countries,
including: Britain, Finland, Poland, South Africa, New Zealand and
Mexico, the book can be used on courses as they develop. Each
chapter ends with a study guide section and a glossary of key terms
and issues providing points for further discussion, additional data
examples, suggestions for further reading and essay topics.
