This volume examines and contrasts different perspectives on and
approaches to the geography of tourism from across European regions
and language traditions. Authors have critiqued the dominance of
Anglo Saxon voices in research on tourism geographies - not just in
linguistic terms - but also in relation to the framing and
theorizing of space, place and tourism appearing largely based on
Anglo-Saxon research contexts. This is a tendency observed across
the whole spectrum of research in human geography. In an attempt to
redress this imbalance, nine internationally renowned contributors
from across Europe share their knowledge and experiences of
research and scholarship in their respective regional contexts,
plus an overview chapter is provided by C. Michael Hall, editor of
the journal Tourism Geographies. This volume aims to: map out the
past and present of the tourism geographies sub-discipline within -
and more importantly - beyond the English language contributions
learn from the historical trajectories as well as experiences of
tourism geographers working in different cultural and linguistic
contexts.
