Tourism Safety and Security for the Caribbean
Tourism Security-safety and Post Conflict Destinations
Series editors: Maximiliano E. Korstanje and Hugues Seraphin
Since the turn of the century, the international rules surrounding security and safety have significantly changed, specifically within the tourism industry. In the age of globalization, terrorism and conflict have moved beyond individual high-profile targets; instead, tourists, travellers, and journalists are at risk. In response to this shift, the series invites authors and scholars to contribute to the conversation surrounding tourism security and postconflict destinations.
The series features monographs and edited collections to create a critical platform which not only explores the dichotomies of tourism from the theory of mobilities but also provides an insightful guide for policymakers, specialists, and social scientists interested in the future of tourism in a society where uncertainness, anxiety, and fear prevail.
Tourism Security-Safety and Post Conflict Destinations explores research approaches and perspectives from a wide range of ideological backgrounds to discuss topics such as:
Studies related to comparative cross-cultural perceptions of risk and threat
Natural and human-caused disasters
Postdisaster recovery strategies in tourism and hospitality
Terror movies and tourism
Aviation safety and security
Crime and security issues in tourism and hospitality
Political instability, terrorism, and tourism
Thana-tourism
War on terror and Muslim-tourism
The effects of global warming on tourism destinations
Innovative quantitative/qualitative methods for the study of risk and security issues in tourism and hospitality
Virus outbreaks and tourism mobility
Disasters, trauma, and tourism
Apocalyptic theories and tourism as a form of entertainment
