Theories of practice in tourism

Tourism research that is inspired by theories of practice is currently gaining in prominence.

This book provides a much-needed introduction to the potential applications of theories of practice in tourism studies.

It brings together a variety of approaches exploring how theories of practice bridge themes and fields which are usually addressed separately within tourism research: consumption and production; travel and the everyday; governance and policy; technology and the social.

The book critically engages with practices as a fruitful approach to tourism research as well as how the particularities of tourism might inform our understanding of practice theories.
