{"product_id":"haunted-heritage-michele-hanks-9781611322255","title":"Haunted Heritage: The Cultural Politics of Ghost Tourism, Populism, and the Past","description":"Haunted Heritage is a fascinating scholarly examination of the dynamics of ghost or paranormal tourism. Michele Hanks explores how this phenomenon allows for the re-articulation and re-configuring of ideas of heritage, epistemic authority, nation, and belonging. Drawing on long-term ethnographic fieldwork, Hanks delves into the anthropological, sociological, political, historical, and cultural factors that drive this burgeoning business. Using York, England, said to be \"the most haunted city in the world,\" as the base for her research, Hanks focuses on three forms of ghost tourism: ghost walks, commercial ghost hunts, and non-profit ghost hunts and paranormal investigations, comparing the experience of York with other sites of ghost tourism globally. This book will appeal to scholars interested in tourism, heritage, the paranormal, visual cultural, British studies, or popular religion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michele Hanks\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1611322251\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781611322255\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/31\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 205\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.01lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.33h x 6.97w x 0.65d","brand":"Michele Hanks","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48088643535103,"sku":"9781611322255","price":220.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6712d831-d92f-4ec8-9949-8f66002f2766.jpg?v=1769105882","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/haunted-heritage-michele-hanks-9781611322255","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
