For many years Ireland has been a popular tourist destination and
tourism has been one of the most significant social, economic and
cultural forces in Irish society. Irish Tourism: Image, Culture and
Identity engages with major national and international debates on
contemporary tourism through cutting-edge research. The book
explores the multi-faceted nature of this important phenomenon,
drawing on current work in sociology, cultural studies,
ethnography, and language studies. For those who theorise about
tourism and those who make practical day-to-day decisions on
tourism policy, Irish Tourism will provide invaluable insights into
historical and contemporary tourist representations, practices and
impacts. In addressing issues such as the relationship between the
local and the global in tourist settings, the construction of
tourist imagery and products, and the development of tourism
policy, contributors to Irish Tourism offer an innovative and
critical analysis of the impact of global tourism on a small
country. This book will be indispensable reading for students and
scholars in Tourism Studies and Irish Studies and will also be
essential for students of sociology, cultural studies, geography,
languages and anthropology.
