**Winner of the 2020 Edward Bruner Prize from the Anthropology of
Tourism Interest Group** "Leite, Castaneda, and Adams's volume is a
beautiful retrospective of the enduring importance of Ed Bruner's
work and legacy in our field, and we have no doubt that it will be
used as a central historical, theoretical, and teaching text by
many." - Prize Committee What does it mean to study tourism
ethnographically? How has the ethnography of tourism changed from
the 1970s to today? What theories, themes, and concepts drive
contemporary research? Thirteen leading anthropologists of tourism
address these questions and provide a critical introduction to the
state of the art. Focusing on the experience-near,
interpretive-humanistic approach to tourism studies widely
associated with anthropologist Edward Bruner, the contributors draw
on their fieldwork to illustrate and build upon key concepts in
tourism ethnography, from experience, encounter, and emergent
culture to authenticity, narrative, contested sites, the
borderzone, embodiment, identity, and mobility. With its
comprehensive introductory chapter, keyword-based organization, and
engaging style, The Ethnography of Tourism will appeal to
anthropology and tourism studies students, as well as to scholars
in both fields and beyond. For more information, check out A
Conversation with the Editors of the Ethnography of Tourism: Edward
M. Bruner and Beyond and In Memoriam: Ed Bruner.
