Contemporary geographies of leisure, tourism and mobility
Inhalt:
"This significant and timely volume focuses on the unique trajectory of tourism development in Japan, which has been characterised by an historical emphasis on promoting both domestic and international tourism to Japanese tourists, followed by the more recent policy of competing aggressively in the international incoming tourist market. Initial chapters present an overview of past and present tourism including policy and research perspectives. Thematic perspectives on tourism and specific contexts and places in which tourism occurs are then examined. Strains of Japanese tourism such as sport, surf, forest, mountain, urban, tea, pilgrimage, and even whaling heritage tourism are among those analysed. The book also explores tourism's role in confronting difficult pasts and presents, and the challenges facing the development of tourism in contemporary Japan. A short post-script outlines some of the challenges and possible future directions tourism in Japan may take in light of the COVID-19 crisis. Written by a team of well-known editors and contributors including academics from Japan, this will be of great interest to upper-students and researchers and academics in Development Studies, Cultural Studies, Geography and Tourism"--
