Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given
area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject
in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of
travel. They are relevant but also visionary. 'Muller's accessible
and timely volume takes a bold step closer to keeping pace with the
constantly evolving sub-discipline of tourism geographies, unafraid
to challenge earlier foundations and keen to prioritise academic
diversity and real-world contexts. The contributors' flair,
perspective and passion comes across throughout what is arguably
the ideal backdrop for shaping future research agendas in the
field.' - Julie Wilson, Open University of Catalonia, Spain Over
recent years, tourism geographies have developed into a vibrant
field of research, facing increasing challenges from globalisation
and environmental change. This Research Agenda presents a unique
and original collection of contributions from both established and
up-and-coming scholars in the field. Encompassing both contemporary
issues, and paving the way for future avenues of research, this
book explores and develops research on tourism geographies.
Chapters address emerging themes and apply new methodologies,
allowing for intellectual and practical challenges to be tackled.
With fresh global insights, this book expands on the geographic
dimension of tourism work and workers, the challenges brought by
changing economic atmospheres, spatial dynamics, big data and
climate change to provide a thorough understanding of the field.
Ideal for graduate and post-graduate students of geography and
tourism studies looking to develop thesis ideas, this Research
Agenda highlights the interest and potential of tourism geographers
to contribute to a geographical tradition and influence the future
content of geography as a discipline. Contributors: M. Bauder, P.
