Exploring dress, identity and performance in contemporary dance music culture
Electronic dance music and its associated cultures have experienced significant growth and diversification in recent decades, evolving from their origins in the warehouse, acid house and rave ‘scenes’. The myriad of interrelated scenes under the umbrella term ‘dance culture’ provides a range of aesthetic and social event experiences, where participants can experiment with and perform multiple identities. This paper explores the significance of dr…

Going the distance: Locating journey, liminality and rites of passage in dance music experiences
Dance culture' is the term now used to describe a large number of connected, inter‐related and overlapping music scenes that have emerged from the warehouse, acid house and rave scenes, and are characterised by electronic music, dancing and the consumption of illicit drugs. This paper examines the construction and consumption of these dance music spaces and experiences. The study adopted a reflexive anthropological methodological package, includi…

Insights into older women's leisure: Voices from urban South Wales
Whilst older women outnumber men (particularly in the ‘oldest old’ phase of life), little research exists within the field of leisure studies on the significance and meaning of leisure for this group. Thus, in an attempt to provide insight into the leisure of older women, this paper presents the findings of a series of semi-structured interviews with a group of women aged 75 five and over. The results contradict many of the perceptions of older p…
Situation, Participation and Reflexivity in Tourism Research: Furthering Interpretive Approaches to Tourism Enquiry
In this paper we advocate the further development and application of research methodologies and programmes which foreground the ‘situated researcher’ and which encourage greater participant involvement and reflexivity. We argue that such approaches can offer unique insights into the meanings consumers ascribe to tourism experiences, practices and performances. Such approaches also require more open-mindedness on the part of the gatekeepers of the…

On location’: Re(viewing) bodies of fashion and places of desire
The interconnected and globalized industries of tourism, fashion and the media are profound and unsuspected agents of cultural pedagogy and investigation of travel-fashion iconographies from a tourism studies perspective is overdue. In this article we explore discourses of tourism, place and gender as articulated in the lifestyle magazine Condé Nast Traveller. Based on a critical textual analysis, the article premises that the fashion features of…

Hotel Babylon? Exploring hotels as liminal sites of transition and transgression
On souvenirs and metonymy: Narratives of memory, metaphor and materiality
This article scrutinizes souvenirs as highly significant, but underexplored material objects of contemporary travel and tourism. It adopts a reflexive interpretive approach to explore the relationship between materiality, tourism and constructions of self-identity and examines how individuals reflexively use souvenirs as touchstones of memory, (re)creating polysensual tourism experiences, self-aware of their roles of 'tourists'. It pays particula…
Tourism gender research: A critical accounting
Constructing tourism research
Constructing tourism landscapes - gender, sexuality and space
Spaces and places are increasingly regarded as socio-cultural constructions rather than physical locations, yet little of this emergent work in cultural and feminist geography has been incorporated into tourism research. The central theme of this article is an articulation of gender relations in the construction, production and consumption of tourism sites and images. It begins by briefly discussing the gendered nature of society and tourism proc…

Culture, identity and tourism representation: Marketing Cymru or Wales
Reaching out to the gay tourist: Opportunities and threats in an emerging market segment
In search of lesbian space? The experience of Manchester's gay village
This paper discusses the socio-cultural processes that shape homosexual leisure space, specifically examining the experiences of lesbians. In doing so, it seeks to contribute to the emergent body of tourism research focusing on gendered and sexualized leisure. Its primary contribution to gender tourism research, however, is to provide further support for the conceptualization of leisure processes and spaces as both heterosexist and androcentric. …
Mythic Geographies of Representation and Identity: Contemporary Postcards of Wales
This article explores how picture postcards contribute to the cultural production, performance and consumption of landscapes, places and identities. Drawing on cultural and critical studies, it scrutinises the postcard as a cultural text and as a site of cultural production. It begins by briefly reviewing the concepts of ethnicity and identity in relation to its case study country of Wales and suggests how its imagined communities and landscapes …

Tourism and representation: A scale for measuring gendered portrayals
This paper analyses the nature of the images of women and men represented in tourism marketing and discusses the wider socio-cultural impact of such imagery. It begins by briefly discussing the gendered nature of tourism experiences and then reviews work on tourism, gender and representation. The paper's substantive contribution to tourism gender research, however, is its adaptation and development of a content analysis technique which facilitate…
Sexuality and holiday choices: Conversations with gay and lesbian tourists
This paper is an exploratory investigation of the travel motivations of gay and lesbian tourists. Based on in-depth interviews and focus groups, it investigates the interrelationships between sexuality, tourism behaviour and tourism spaces. Given that public space is controlled and heterosexualized, the paper suggests that whilst gay and lesbian people are motivated to travel for a range of reasons, such is the power of the dominant heterosexual …
Security and social ‘sorting: Traversing the surveillance–tourism dialectic
The discourses of surveillance are central to international tourism, itself concerned with mobilities and flows between inter-modal facilities such as train stations, ferry ports and airports – where the most diverse forms of surveillance are found. This article puts surveillance under scrutiny, discussing the ‘new surveillance’ and (through an exploration of the nature of airport surveillance) reviewing the implications of the ‘panoptic sort’ fo…
