Dark Tourism, as well as other terms such as Thanatourism and Grief
Tourism, has been much discussed in the past two decades. This
volume provides a comprehensive exploration of the subject from the
point of view of both practice - how Dark Tourism is performed,
what practical and physical considerations exist on site - and
interpretation - how Dark Tourism is understood, including issues
pertaining to ethics, community involvement and motivation. It
showcases a wide range of examples, drawing on the expertise of
academics with management and consultancy experience, as well as
those from within the social sciences and humanities. Contributors
discuss the historical development of Dark Tourism, including its
earlier incarnations across Europe, but they also consider its
future as a strand within academic discourse, as well as its role
within tourism development. Case studies include holocaust sites in
Germany, as well as analysis of the legacy of war in places such as
the Channel Islands and Malta. Ethical and myriad marketing
considerations are also discussed in relation to Ireland, Brazil,
Rwanda, Romania, U.K., Nepal and Bosnia-Herzegovina. This book
covers issues that are of interest to students and staff across a
spectrum of disciplines, from management to the arts and
humanities, including conservation and heritage, site management,
marketing and community participation.
