This first full length treatment of the role of morality in tourism
examines how the tourism encounter is also fundamentally a moral
encounter. Drawing upon interdisciplinary perspectives, leading and
new authors in the field address topics that range from volunteer
tourism to fertility tourism to reveal new insights into the ways
tourism encounters are implicated in, and contribute to, broader
moral reconfigurations in Western and non-Western contexts.
Illustrating the role of power and power relations in tourism
encounters within different political, economic, environmental and
cultural contexts, the authors in this anthology analyse,
theoretically and empirically, the implications of the privileging
of some moralities at the expense of others. Key themes include the
moral consumption of tourism experiences, embodiment in tourism
encounters, environmental moralities as well as methodological
aspects of morality in tourism research. Crossing disciplinary and
chronological boundaries, Moral Encounters in Tourism provides a
much-anticipated overview of this new interdisciplinary terrain and
offers possible routes for new research on the intersection of
morality and tourism studies.
