Handbook on Tourism and Migration

This comprehensive Handbook explores how tourism stimulates domestic and international migration through labour market dynamics, entrepreneurship, and the development of social networks. It emphasises the deeply interrelated nature of tourism and migration as central aspects of human mobility. The Handbook first provides a grounding in key concepts, approaches, and frameworks before moving through four aspects of tourism and migration: consumption, production, regulation, and the future. Leading experts highlight the role of lifestyle in influencing voluntary migration, as well as the importance of political and market forces in shaping mobility and the effects of migration on destinations. Chapters investigate key aspects of the tourism-migration nexus, such as the impact of migrant workers, entrepreneurship, tourism governance, the function of short and long term migration, and sense of place. Emphasising the fluidity of tourism and migration, the Handbook advocates for a better understanding of the dynamic and increasingly contested nature of this interrelationship. The Handbook on Tourism and Migration is a vital resource for scholars and students of tourism, migration studies, and human geography. Tourism policymakers will also benefit from its broad scope and actionable recommendations.
