This book explores the paradoxes of Self-Other relations in the
field of tourism. It particularly focuses on the 'power' of
different forms of 'Otherness' to seduce and to disrupt, and,
eventually, also to renew the social and cosmological orders of
'modern' culture and everyday life. Drawing on a series of
ethnographic case studies, the contributors investigate the
production, socialisation and symbolic encompassment of different
'Others' as a political and also an economic resource to govern
social life in the present. The volume provides a comparative
inductive study on the modernist philosophical concepts of time,
'Otherness', and the self in practice, and relates it to
contemporary tourism and mobility.
