This comprehensive book delves into the recent advancements in Francophone tourism geography, offering a comprehensive overview of the field. It specifically focuses on the theoretical developments in social and cultural geography, highlighting the symbolic aspects of tourism and the creation of tourism worlds as central themes. The book proposes a novel perspective on tourism, portraying the tourist as a mobile, situated, skilled, and reflexive inhabitant of places, thereby giving meaning to the expression "inhabiting touristic worlds."
In greater detail, the book addresses a range of rarely explored topics, including the geo-history of tourism, the material cultures of tourists, the digital disconnectivity in National Parks, and the utilization of tourist knowledge in urban contexts. It provides insightful perspectives on specific Francophone approaches, such as inhabiting, the urbanity of tourist resorts, and the notion of territory in tourist studies. Furthermore, the book offers a comprehensive examination of the urban dimensions of tourism, encompassing heritage, oasis tourism, sports tourism, and the production of space in Mexican resorts.
As a valuable resource for academics, students, and professionals in the fields of tourism studies and tourism geography, this book provides a wealth of alternative approaches and insights into the complex dynamics of tourism in Francophone regions and beyond.
