This collection critically examines tourism as a site of
intercultural communication, drawing on the analytical tools
afforded by the discipline toward better understanding contemporary
tourism discourses and the broader societal structures of power and
ideologies in which they are situated. The volume interrogates
culture and interculturality in tourism in detailed analyses of
discursive details in tourism interactions and focuses on the
notion of culture as a process or phenomenon engaged in or enacted
on by individuals. Drawing on discourse analytic and ethnographic
approaches, the book brings together perspectives from the lived
experiences of residents, hosts and ethnographers to explore the
extent to which linguistic and cultural differences are
constructed, identities negotiated, and power relations maintained
and perpetuated in tourism encounters. The volume draws on insights
from those working across a range of geographic contexts and
explores the interplay of these issues in English as well as other
languages and language varieties used in tourism interactions. With
its focus on critical approaches to understanding language and
culture, this book will appeal to students and scholars in
intercultural communication, applied linguistics, sociolinguistics,
linguistic anthropology, discourse analysis, and tourism studies.
