Based on a detailed ethnography, this book explores the promises
and expectations of tourism in Cuba, drawing attention to the
challenges that tourists and local people face in establishing
meaningful connections with each other. Notions of informal
encounter and relational idiom illuminate ambiguous experiences of
tourism harassment, economic transactions, hospitality, friendship,
and festive and sexual relationships. Comparing these various
connections, the author shows the potential of touristic encounters
to redefine their moral foundations, power dynamics, and
implications, offering new insights into how contemporary
relationships across difference and inequality are imagined and
understood.
