{"product_id":"regimes-of-value-in-tourism","title":"Regimes of Value in Tourism","description":"\u003cp\u003eDrawing from ethnographic work in five continents, this book demonstrates how different regimes of value in tourism can coexist, collide, and compete across a varied geographic terrain. Much theory in tourism economics defines ‘value’ as a measure of monetary worth, a concept governing commodity exchange, and a gauge for tourist satisfaction. The research included in this volume shows that tourism not only feeds off existing conceptions of value as a monetary category, but that it is also instrumental in reproducing and reinforcing those subjective, morally heightened, and highly intangible values that make tourism and the tourism economy a complex social, cultural, political, and psychological phenomenon. The book pushes the debate about the tourism economy beyond a simplistic understanding of producer-consumer relations, instead suggesting a refocus on the social, spatial, and temporal lags in tourism production, and the ensuing differentiated regimes of values.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book was published as a special issue of the \u003cem\u003eJournal of Tourism and Cultural Change\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54235677688152,"sku":"9781138106796","price":44.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781138106796_a132f1ac-7715-4f17-ae3d-7425782a446c.jpg?v=1769803243","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/regimes-of-value-in-tourism","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
