Of Tourists and Vagabonds in the Global South
Emerald Publishing Limited (Verlag)
978-1-83608-045-9 (ISBN)
Zygmunt Bauman has historically debated the inconsistencies of global capitalism in his different texts and offered a diagnosis of global capitalism based on two main figures: tourists who are privileged agents legally encouraged to move and visit the world and vagabonds who are closely scrutinized and subject to a climate of oppression and immobility.
With a focus on Buenos Aires city, Maximiliano E. Korstanje critically explores the position of marginality and homeless people and how they are located alongside urban tourist resorts or luxury hotels. Offering a lucid diagnosis of the conflictive encounter between people experiencing homelessness and foreign tourists in Buenos Aires City, the chapters examine divergent topics such as poverty tourism, safety-security in tourism, tourism consumption, heritage tourism, and anthropology of tourism.
The Tourism Security-Safety and Post Conflict Destinations series provides an insightful guide for policy makers, specialists and social scientists interested in the future of tourism in a society where uncertainness, anxiety and fear prevail.
Maximiliano E. Korstanje is a Senior Researcher in the Department of Economics at the University of Palermo, Argentina, and a global affiliate of the Tourism Crisis Management Institute (University of Florida US), Centre for Ethnicity and Racism Studies (University of Leeds), The Forge (University of Lancaster and University of Leeds UK) and The International Society for Philosopher, hosted in Sheffield UK.
