Transnational in nature and unbounded by space, they cut across the static, territorial boundaries more usually deployed to govern tourism. In a vibrant inter-disciplinary collection of essays from leading scholars in the field, this book introduces the main features and constructs of diasporas, and explores their implications for the consumption, production and practices of tourism. Three sets of mutually reinforcing relationships are explored: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eexperiences of diaspora tourists\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ethe settings and spaces of diaspora tourism\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ethe production of diaspora tourism. \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eAddressing the relationship between diasporic groups and tourism from both a consumer and producer perspective, examples are drawn from a wide spectrum of diasporic groups including the Chinese, Jewish, Southeast Asian, Croatian, Dutch and Welsh.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUntil now, there has been no systematic and detailed treatment of the relationships between diasporas, their consumptions and the tourist experience. However, here, Coles and Timothy provide a unique navigation of the nature of these inter-connections which is ideal for students of tourism, sociology, cultural studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tim Coles\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415311241\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415311243\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/27\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.52h x 6.48w x 0.99d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2005 pg. 1632","brand":"Tim Coles","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086344761599,"sku":"9780415311243","price":240.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_17b3ff24-e589-4399-a77f-b2379c806878.jpg?v=1769094159","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/tourism-diasporas-and-space-tim-coles-9780415311243","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
