{"product_id":"liminality-in-tourism","title":"Liminality in Tourism","description":"\u003cp\u003eLiminality is not typically associated with tourism, even though it can be viewed as an intrinsic element of the social\/cultural experiences of tourism. \u003ci\u003eLiminality in Tourism\u003c\/i\u003e: \u003ci\u003eSpatial and Temporal Considerations\u003c\/i\u003e aims to build upon the tradition of liminality as expounded in social and anthropological disciplines, elaborating on the theoretical principles and concepts found within certain aspects of the tourist journey and tourist product. The emergence of post-modern society has impelled a change in the tourist gaze towards a more experiential and adventuresome globalised experience. An important aspect of the tourist phenomenon of liminality is where a transformative experience is triggered by entering a liminoid tourist space, leaving the tourist permanently psychologically transformed, before returning to normalised society. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe narrative provides a new perspective on the tourist experience with a provocative examination into the multidimensional aspects of tourism, by exploring tourism within the spatial and temporal aspects of liminal landscapes. Covid-19 has further changed the rubric of tourism. Until the current pandemic, tourism has basically been a fun experience. In a post pandemic world, however, the tourist is now facing an unknown future which will almost certainly affect tourism liminality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book presents the reader with a wealth of examples and case studies closely illustrating the association between tourism and liminal experiences. The geographical perspectives explore the more subconscious outcomes of destination and tourist product consumption. The book should be a useful reader to tourism geography where the theory of liminality can be synthesized into tourist experiences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal \u003ci\u003eTourism Geographies.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54242623881560,"sku":"9780367771188","price":55.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780367771188.jpg?v=1777654829","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/liminality-in-tourism","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
