Lifestyle Migration and Residential Tourism represent a major trend
in individualized societies worldwide, which is attracting a
rapidly growing interest from the academic community. This volume
for the first time, critically analyses the spatial, social and
political consequences of such leisure-oriented mobilities and
migrations. The book approaches the topic from a multidisciplinary
and international perspective, unifying different branches of
research, such as lifestyle migration, amenity migration,
retirement migration, and second home tourism. By covering a
variety of regions and landscapes such as mountain and coastal
areas, rural and inland communities this volume productively
engages with the formal and analytical variations of the phenomenon
resulting in an enriching debate at the intersection of different
areas of research. Amongst others, topics like political contest
and civic participation of lifestyle migrants, their impacts on
local communities, social tensions and inequalities induced by the
phenomenon, as well as modes of transnational living, home and
belonging will be thoroughly explored. This thought provoking
volume will provide deep analytical and conceptual insights into
the contested geographies of lifestyle migration and further
knowledge into the spatial, social and political consequences of
leisure-oriented mobilities. It will be valuable reading for
students, researchers and academics from a plethora of academic
disciplines.
