| description |
This book is based on the notion that analy-
sis similar to that of the tourist gaze (Urry,
1990, 2002) can be applied to the host gaze.
We can use our understanding of the gaze to
make sense of the wider society. In Urry’s
words, to consider how host communities
construct their gaze upon tourists is a ‘good
way of getting at just what is happening in
the “normal society”’ (Urry, 2002, p. 2). We
gaze at what we encounter, and this gaze is
socially and culturally organized (Foucault,
[1963] 1973). The concept of Foucault’s
medical gaze can help us to grasp tiny
anomalies in our globalized world. For the
purpose of this book, the gaze of the medic
can help us to gaze systematically upon the
gazes of the host. The host gaze involves
looking at the host–guest encounter with
interest and curiosity. There is the gaze of
the gazer and the gaze of the gazee or the
object of the initial gaze. Both gazes are sub-
ject to change with changing economic,
demographic, social, political, cultural and
other societal phenomena (MacCannell,
2001; Urry, 2002). Just as the tourist gaze is
dynamic (Urry, 2002), the host gaze is also
changing, depending on who is the tourist
and who is the host (Moufakkir, 2011). Just
as there is no single tourist gaze, the host
gaze must also vary by society, social group
and historical period. Host gazes are con-
structed through cultural similarities and
dissimilarities (Moufakkir, 2011). Surely,
there must be different gazes from the same
gazer upon different gazees. Thus, to speak
of a ‘general gaze’ (Foucault, [1963] 1973,
p. 156) would be not only confusing but
also misleading. |
