Women, Leisure and Tourism provides a comprehensive discussion of
women, leisure, and tourism through the lens of leisure production
and consumption, both by women and for women. Specifically, this
text includes a multi-cultural perspective to highlight the unique
attributes leisure brings to women, the role of women in leisure
entrepreneurship, and the creation of supportive, inclusive
environments to enhance female well-being through the examination
of these activities in often overlooked populations. The diversity
of women's leisure and tourism practices is best perceived through
the links between various leisure practices (e.g., sport, outdoor
recreation, travel and tourism, learning, crafts, events, family
leisure), as well as an understanding of leisure production across
cultures and life stages. These chapters bring to the forefront
many of the challenges inherent in providing leisure and tourism
that support the diverse needs of women, as well as a look at
female innovation that is also often overlooked in leisure
research. The book includes examples of both applied and conceptual
chapters from global perspectives in academic studies. This book: -
Is written by multi-disciplinary authors. - Includes case studies,
research methodologies and pedagogical approaches to highlight the
complexity of gender studies and provide a diverse toolkit to
support further research on women and gender. - Presents applied
and conceptual chapters from global perspectives in academic
studies. This book is valuable for academics and graduate students
of tourism, leisure and gender studies.
