Notes Towards a Phenomenological Anthropology of Travel and Tourism
This paper is an introduction to the Humanities Special Issue on ‘The Phenomenology of Travel and Tourism’. It is made up of four sections, the first two of which provide the main focus of discussion. We start by considering the idea of travel ‘in comfort’, which, as we show, has been historically bound up with cultures of the mobile virtual gaze. Comfort, by this reckoning, reflects a phenomenological disposition whereby the act of gazing at an …
Critical reflections on mass tourism and empathy in the works of a Finnish artist
Art and tourism provide a fascinating nexus for creative academic research. This paper explores this connection by interpreting art made about tourists and tourism and by listening to a Finnish artist, Erika Adamsson. Her perspective as well as the theoretical framework of understanding others without hiding stereotypes or challenging issues are discussed. The method used is autoethnographic artwork elicitation. As a result, this paper provides a…
Mordaith in Mallorca: Playing with Toy Tourism
This paper is an exploration of play in tourism. It is situated in an approach to play and toys informed by phenomenological perspectives and theoretical insights drawn from existential anthropology. It argues that tourism and play are intimately linked and outlines the ways in which connections between the two have been made. This paper focuses on a particular practice of play in travel—one that involves the use of a toy. Using the notion of ‘to…
Tourists and the Carnivalesque: Partying in the Land of Cockaigne
This article uses the idea of the carnivalesque to “think through” party tourism as practiced by British charter tourists in the resort of Magaluf on the Mediterranean island of Mallorca. In addition, it considers the related idea of the European medieval fantasy Land of Cockaigne. Both the carnivalesque and Land of Cockaigne invite reflection on symbolic inversions that productively illuminate party tourism practices that are often underlain by …
Tourism and Covid-19: Intimacy Transformed or Intimacy Interrupted
This article is a rumination on the ramifications of COVID-19 on practices of intimacy. In first exploring what intimacy is, the article notes that what it means and how it is practised varies depending on the socio-cultural context and the protagonists involved. Taking the tourist as a central figure in a search for intimacy, the article argues that this is predominantly seen in relation to sexual encounters. These occur in both tourists’ encoun…
Tourism and Embodiment
The role of the body and the concept of embodiment have largely been neglected in anthropological studies of tourism. This book explores the notion of the tourist body and develops understanding of how touristic practice is embodied practice, not only for tourists but also for those who work in tourism. This book provides a more holistic understanding of the role of the body in making and re-making self and world by engaging with tourism. This co…

Why am I putting myself through this?’ Women football coaches’ experiences of the Football Association's coach education process
In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the provision of formal coach education. However, research has repeatedly demonstrated how coach education has had a limited impact on the learning and development of coach practitioners. To date however, these investigations have avoided female coach populations. Ten women football coaches who had recently completed various association football coach education courses participated in this…
Events and The Social Sciences
As the events management field expands as an area of study, there is a need to move beyond the business and marketing-driven approaches which dominate the literature towards a more advanced conceptual analysis and understanding of events from a socio-cultural context. This book addresses this need by examining intersections between the social sciences and the emerging field of events management. It applies and specifically contextualises social s…
Porkin' Pig goes to Magaluf
This article discusses the symbolic role of pigs in the Mediterranean charter-tourist resort of Magaluf, Mallorca, based on periods of participant observation. The significance of pigs has been explored in relation to other cultures, notably Papua New Guinea, but work on the animal's importance in British culture is less well documented. Taking Baudrillard's concept of a system of objects, this article links the pig to other objects of material c…
Tourism as a 'Moment of Being
The purpose of this article is to gather together a number of conceptual or theoretical points drawn from the wider social anthropological discourse on the nature of experience. It advances understandings of the anthropology of experience through the medium of tourism. In turn it also illuminates understandings of the nature of tourism experiences. The article is largely a theoretical piece that is illustrated with details drawn from an ethnograp…

Tits Out for the Boys and No Back Chat”: Gendered Space on Holiday
This article explores the dynamics between the structure of overarching gendered social relations and the practice of gendered identities in the cultural space of one particular tourist destination, Magaluf on the Mediterranean Island of Mallorca. Although there have been many studies concerning constructions of gendered identity in tourism, these have tended to examine sexual relations rather than everyday touristic practice. The data are drawn …
Feeling at home: Embodying Britishness in a Spanish charter tourist resort
The study of the tourist subject has been largely absent from the social science literature in tourism studies. Where discussions of the practice of tourism have taken place these have mainly centred around notions of the gaze. This perspective ignores the embodied and felt nature of the tourist experience and other senses such as smell and hearing. This article moves the discussion forward. The analysis is based upon ethnographic fieldwork in ch…
Deindustrialization, Inner-City Decay, and the Hierarchical Diffusion of Aids in the USA: How Neoliberal and Cold War Policies Magnified the Ecological Niche for Emerging Infections and Created a Nati…
AIDS is well known to have diffused hierarchically among US metropolitan regions, from the larger to the smaller, along national travel routes. Here we relate that diffusion to economic and social policy, by using approaches from population and community ecology and quantitative geography. We find that patterns of deindustrialization driven by cold war policies have interacted synergistically with the 'planned shrinkage' hollowing-out of poor min…
Aids, Tuberculosis, Violent Crime, and Low Birthweight in Eight US Metropolitan Areas: Public Policy, Stochastic Resonance, and the Regional Diffusion of Inner-City Markers
In previous papers of this series we have shown how public policies of 'planned shrinkage' triggered contagious urban decay and massive destruction of low-income housing within poor minority communities of New York City. The resulting social disintegration exacerbated epidemics of infectious disease, including AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome) and TB (tuberculosis), and such behavioral pathologies as substance abuse and violence. We exten…
The late-stage diagnosis of colorectal cancer: Demographic and socioeconomic factors
OBJECTIVES: This study described factors related to colorectal cancer stage at diagnosis. METHODS: Logistic regression analyses were used on data from the New York State Tumor Registry and US Census area-level social class indicators. RESULTS: After the effects of other predictors were controlled for, the odds of late-stage cancer increased as age decreased; women and African Americans were significantly more likely to have late stage than men an…
The Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Aids and TB in the New York Metropolitan Region from a Sociogeographic Perspective: Understanding the Linkages of Central City and Suburbs
Empirical and theoretical analyses based on observed patterns of incidence of AIDS and tuberculosis, on rates of poverty, and on statistics describing a 'Markov infection' driven by the 'commuting field' around Manhattan, strongly suggest that urban and suburban epicenters within a twenty-four-county metropolitan region, covering eighteen million people and more than 7600 square miles, may be significantly and increasingly linked to outlying affl…
Whose health is it? Views about decision-making and information-seeking from people with HIV infection and their professional carers
The views of people with HIV and their professional carers about patients' views on involvement in decision-making and information-seeking were studied, using a standardized self-report instrument. Patients and staff reported high levels of desire for patients' involvement in their care, but there were important differences between groups. Staff had higher preference for patients' involvement in decision-making than the patients themselves, while…
Determinants of late stage diagnosis of breast and cervical cancer: The impact of age, race, social class, and hospital type
Previous studies of the relationship between cancer stage, age, and race have not controlled for social class and health care setting. Logistic regression analyses, using information from the New York State Tumor Registry and area-level social class indicators, demonstrated that, in New York City, older Black, lower class women in public hospitals were 3.75 and 2.54 times more likely to have late stage breast or cervical cancer, respectively, tha…
