Disruptive and creative research methodologies proposed in this
book are designed to dismantle neoliberal narratives deployed in
tourism studies and wider social sciences. Progressing criticality
in tourism studies, this volume showcases cutting-edge
contributions ranging from reflexivity, subjectivities, and dreams;
to messy emotions in auto-ethnographic accounts of fieldwork;
'motherhood capital' accessing Inuit communities; collective memory
work; ethnodrama and creative non-fiction, amongst others.
Disruption and creativity are the two ideas around which tourism
geographers challenge and begin dismantling hegemonic ideologies in
tourism studies. The chapters in this book provide a vantage point
from where to disrupt first, before tourism geographers can
engender progress and transformation within and outside of the
field. In tourism studies in general, and tourism geography in
particular, the years of the 2000s have witnessed an emphasis on
qualitative methodological research, both in terms of the topics
addressed and the types of methodological tools. In many ways, this
legitimisation of qualitative work mirrors developments in other
areas such as human geography, sociology and anthropology, in which
this book is anchored. The authors debate in more depth how tourism
studies offer multidimensional, multilogical and multi-emotional
approaches to research design. The chapters were originally
published as a special issue of the journal, Tourism Geographies.
