This book challenges the classic - and often tacit -
compartmentalization of tourism, migration, and refugee studies by
exploring the intersections of these forms of spatial mobility:
each prompts distinctive images and moral reactions, yet they often
intertwine, overlap, and influence one another. Tourism, migration,
and exile evoke widely varying policies, diverse popular reactions,
and contrasting imagery. What are the ramifications of these siloed
conceptions for people on the move? To what extent do gender,
class, ethnic, and racial global inequalities shape moral
discourses surrounding people's movements? This book presents 12
predominantly ethnographic case studies from around the world, and
a pandemic-focused conclusion, that address these issues. In
recounting and juxtaposing stories of refugees' and migrants'
returns, marriage migrants, voluntourists, migrant retirees,
migrant tourism workers and entrepreneurs, mobile investors and
professionals, and refugees pursuing educational mobility, this
book cultivates more nuanced insights into intersecting forms of
mobility. Ultimately, this work promises to foster not only empathy
but also greater resolve for forging trails toward mobility
justice. This accessibly written volume will be essential to
scholars and students in critical migration, tourism, and refugee
studies, including anthropologists, sociologists, human
geographers, and researchers in political science and cultural
studies. The book will also be of interest to non-academic
professionals and general readers interested in contemporary
mobilities.
