Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
What does it mean to go on vacation in a world of heightened connectivity? How do tourists experience the "other" when on holiday in a foreign location? What kinds of leisure activities do different types of tourists engage in outside their everyday lives? Why is it that travel destinations are increasingly starting to look like "non-places" in Marc Augé’s sense of the word? If tourism is indeed the fastest growing industry today, then perhaps we need to engage with it critically as a lens onto our changing globalized landscape. Its analysis, interestingly, points to some of the central tenants underpinning anthropological enquiry and analysis. Thus, not only is tourism creating new, complex, and complicated relations between hosts and guests; it is also unsettling notions of primitive and civilized, self and other, nature and culture. This course will engage both with different forms of tourism (sex tourism, heritage tourism, religious tourism, and dark tourism, to name a few) and different tourist sites (museums, nature parks, islands, beaches). We will examine competing theories on travel, leisure, and heritage before looking at the material practices of commodifying and collecting the other (the photograph, the souvenir, the postcard). What differentiates an anthropologist from a tourist, and vice-versa? Is tourism really a modern form of colonialism, as some scholars argue? Or is travel an innate, Westernized version of religious pilgrimage and rituals found in other parts of the world? Readings will cover a variety of (tourist) settings including Japan, India, Italy, England, Réunion (France), Brazil and South Africa.The course involves lecture elements and class discussions on readings, as well as the use of audio-visual materials to demonstrate the case-studies of each session.
