This book aims to further academic debate within the leisure and
tourism studies community about the role of 'families' in
contemporary life and the experiences of families and their
children in the leisure environment. It is based on the recognition
of the diverse nature of the family in the contemporary era and the
position of children in families and society in general as active
and knowing social agents rather than as passive objects. The
family is on the one hand our first community with its own special
kind of human attachment and on the other a little world on which
the larger society is modelled. Families form the closest and most
important emotional bond in humans. This relationship is what
drives humanity and society, and positions families at the centre
of leisure activities. This international and multi-disciplinary
compilation of recent research into children and families examines
progress made and challenges ahead for leisure studies. It extends
the academic discourse to a wider understanding of what families,
children and their leisure behaviour mean in today's societies.
This book was originally published as a special issue of Annals of
Leisure Research.
