This book offers a fresh account of the Anzac myth and the
bittersweet emotional experience of Gallipoli tourists. Challenging
the straightforward view of the Anzac obsession as a kind of
nationalistic military Halloween, it shows how transnational
developments in tourism and commemoration have created the
conditions for a complex, dissonant emotional experience of
sadness, humility, anger, pride and empathy among Anzac tourists.
Drawing on the in-depth testimonies of travellers from Australia
and New Zealand, McKay shines a new and more complex light on the
history and cultural politics of the Anzac myth. As well as making
a ground breaking, empirically-based intervention into the culture
wars, this book offers new insights into the global memory boom and
transnational developments in backpacker tourism, sports tourism
and "dark" or "dissonant" tourism.
