| description |
Volume 1 of this two-part work set out the case
for tourism as ‘. . .part of the mass-mediated,
post-industrial, postmodern society that has
spawned tourists who seek instant gratification
in the dreamscapes, landscapes, ethnoscapes,
and heritagescapes created and provided by the
tourism sector. . .’. In this sense, as Hollinshead
(1999: 7) puts it with uncharacteristic clarity,
‘tourism, often unsuspectingly, matters’. While
tourism and the study of tourists have become a
mature and discrete area of multidisciplinary
study, there remains something of a struggle
about finding suitable research instruments,
methods and strategies to adequately capture
and do justice to data. On the one hand, simplistic visitor arrivals or other statistical measures
have no capacity to communicate the complex
flavour of tourism as it infuses the cultures of
both visitors and the visited. On the other hand, it
has never been the intention of detailed qualitative studies of a particular micro-destination
to create generalizations for wider applications.
If the idea of research and publication is to
create and disseminate knowledge, then a
broad approach must be taken that encourages innovation and develops methods that
allow nuanced descriptions of social phenomena (including travel and tourism) beyond the
merely descriptive. |
