Contemporary geographies of leisure, tourism and mobility
Content:
"The Power of New Urban Tourism explores new forms of tourism in urban areas with their social, political, architectural, and economic implications on a global stage. By investigating various showcases of New Urban Tourism within its social and spatial frames, the book offers insights into power relations, the impact of cultural, social and economic capital on tourism, and connections between tourism and cityscapes in various socio-spatial settings around the world. Contributors to the volume show how urban space has become a battleground between local residents and visitors, with changing perceptions of tourists as co-users of public and private urban spaces and as influencers of the local economies. This includes different roles of digital platforms as resources for access to the city and touristic opportunities as well as means to organise protest. With contemporary cases from a wide disciplinary spectrum, the contributors investigate exploratively the power of New Urban Tourism in Africa, Asia, the Americas, Europe and Oceania. This focus allows a cross-cultural evaluation of New Urban Tourism and its dynamic and changing concept, transforming and subverting cities and tourism alike. The Power of New Urban Tourism will be of great interest to academics, researchers and students in the fields of cultural studies, sociology, the political sciences, history, human geography, urban design and planning, architecture, ethnology and anthropology"--
