This book is the first its kind to offer an innovative examination
of the intersecting influences, contexts, and challenges within the
field of children's dark tourism. It also outlines novel
conceptualizations and methods for scholarship in this overlooked
field. Presently, tourism research, and in dark tourism
specifically, relies primarily on adult-centered theories and data
collection methods. However, these approaches are inadequate for
understanding and developing children's experiences and
perspectives. This book seeks to inform and inspire research on
children's experiences of dark tourism. Designed to appeal to
students and scholars, it brings together insights from leading
experts. The book focuses on five themes, to explore the conceptual
and historic origins of children's dark tourism, developmental
contexts, child perspectives, specific contexts relevant to
children's encounters, and methodological approaches. This book is
aimed at an international array of scholars and students with
inherent research interests in the contemporary commodification of
death and 'difficult heritage' within the visitor economy. Thus,
the book will provide a multi-disciplinary scope within the fields
of history, heritage studies, childhood studies, psychology,
education, sociology, human geography, and tourism studies. The
volume is primarily intended for undergraduate and postgraduate
study, as well as scholars and tourism professionals.
