Disneyization of Drug Use
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-367-74372-7 (ISBN)
Drawing on ethnographic research conducted over three summers in Ibiza, the book contextualizes the drug and alcohol-related experiences of tourists and seasonal workers operating in the island's infamously hedonistic party spaces. Through an innovative application of Alan Bryman’s (2004) seminal work, The Disneyization of Society, the book argues how the same marketing principles that generate consumption in the legal economy of Disney theme parks also drives illicit drug use in Ibiza and music festivals, where the line between legal and illegal substances rapidly blurs to the point of collapse. This highly innovative book offers rich insights into the complex interplay between drug and alcohol use, agency, pleasure, risk, consumerism, and social context.
It will be of great appeal to academics and students interested in the fields of cultural criminology, deviant leisure, drug and alcohol studies, youth culture, and ethnographic research methods.
Tim Turner is an Assistant Professor of Criminology at Coventry University. His research interests focus on atypical patterns of drug and alcohol use in music festivals and other party zones. He is a volunteer research officer with The Loop, a ground-breaking service providing drug checking and harm reduction interventions within music festivals and city centres. Prior to his academic career, Tim was employed as a Forensic Mental Health Nurse in Camden Town, north London, working with violent mentally disordered offenders in the community, prisons, secure units, and police stations.
