"Socialising Tourism…" is a most timely and apt volume for addressing the global troubles caused by tourism. The initial chapters examining Indigenous hospitality and earth stewardship set an appropriate platform for some of the following chapters in which social and ecological well-being are paramount concerns. The book is forthright in challenging the tourism industry for the many stresses it places on world communities and the natural environment.Ben Sherman, MSc, Chairman, World Indigenous Tourism Alliance (WINTA) www.winta.orgThis book on social and ecological justice through tourism is extremely timely and relevant in a world that is grappling with how to re-imagine and re-position tourism as we emerge from a global pandemic. The editors have done a stellar job of compiling chapters containing critical, innovative and somewhat radical ideas that could help us to achieve a more balanced approach in future.Regina Scheyvens, Massey University, New ZealandSocialising Tourism demonstrates both the desperate need for change in contemporary tourism and the development of a coherent response. Grounded in principles of social, ecological and economic justice, this international collection provides valuable insights from a range of different places and experiences as to how tourism may better contribute to communities, destinations and the planet as a whole. This volume will be warmly welcomed.C. Michael Hall, University of Canterbury, New ZealandThis accessible, provocative text critically explores ‘socialising tourism’ which rejects as unsustainable the colonial, imperialist, market-driven forces that still shape tourism. The authors, unashamedly political, urge reflection on what tourism is for and who it serves, while presenting radical possibilities for socially, ecologically just tourism futures. This text will undoubtedly become essential reading, stimulating vigorous debates amongst students and researchers.Donna Chambers, Professor of Tourism, University of Sunderland, UK
