Description
Tourism and Souvenirs: Glocal Perspectives from the Margins
This book explores souvenirs as expressions of culture and triggers of cultural change, focusing on the lives lived at the margins of society. It provides critique and theorisation of souvenirs in the context of tourism flows, urbanisation, and global influences.
Case studies in sustainable tourism illustrate how consumers and suppliers use souvenirs to respond to, resist, and reinterpret local and global influences, highlighting dynamic ways that cultures interact across informal, hybrid, and formal economies.
