Conference theme
The conference themes include Challenging the limits in:
-
heritage tourism
-
ethical and sustainable tourism
-
place and destination management
-
consumer demand for tourism & hospitality
-
tourism and hospitality education
-
challenging the right to travel
-

-
conceptual and theoretical perspectives in Australian Tourism Studies
This stream provides an opportunity for delegates to reflect on the theoretical and conceptual ideas that inform their research (and teaching) on tourism. Papers may address:
-
New perspectives in tourism, such as ‘the critical turn’ in tourism studies, tourism and performance, realism and postcolonial perspectives on heritage.
-
Sensual and embodied tourisms.
-
Conceptual development in the field of nature or eco-tourism.
-
Tourism and consumerism.
-
The relationship between tourism and the creative and culture industries.
-
Tourism and mobility.
-
Tourism and the aging society.
-
Other ideas that delegates have developed or wish to develop further.
The aim is to provide a forum for expression and discussion of new ideas in tourism. It offers an opportunity to obtain feedback on advanced writing as well as a platform for the discussion of embryonic ideas.
The stream will be convened by Professor Adrian Franklin, Professor of Sociology at the University of Tasmania and Editor of Tourist Studies. Professor Franklin aims to edit a special issue of Tourist Studies: Issues in Australian Tourism Studies (roughly speaking, papers by Australian authors or papers on Australian tourism).
