Thanatourism and Cinematic Representations of Risk - Rodanthi Tzanelli - Bog

- Screening the End of Tourism

Bag om Thanatourism and Cinematic Representations of Risk

This book adopts an unorthodox approach to debates about `the end of tourism¿. Through twenty-first century cinematic narratives of symbolically interconnected `risks¿ it considers how art envisages the future of humanity¿s well-being. Filmic scenarios articulate the futuristic survival of community as the triumph of the technological human over otherness, and provide a means to debate societal risks that weave identity politics into unequal mobilities. This book will appeal to researchers and students interested in mobilities theory, tourism and travel theory, film studies and aesthetics, globalisation studies, race, labour and migration.
