This book focuses on perspectives from and on the global south,
providing fresh data and analyses on languages in African,
Caribbean, Middle-Eastern and Asian tourism contexts. It provides a
critical perspective on tourism in postcolonial and neocolonial
settings, explored through in-depth case studies. The volume offers
a multifaceted view on how language commodifies, and is commodified
in, tourism settings and considers language practices and discourse
as a way of constructing identities, boundaries and places. It also
reflects on academic practice and economic dynamics in a field that
is characterised by social inequalities and injustice, and tourism
as the world's largest industry enacting dynamic communicative,
social and cultural transformations. The book will appeal to both
undergraduate and postgraduate students of tourism studies,
linguistics, literature, cultural history and anthropology, as well
as researchers and professionals in these fields.
