This book explores the phenomena of the urban everyday and new urban tourism. It provides a systematic framework and draws on a mix of theoretical and empirical work to look at the increasing intermingling of ‘tourists’ and ‘residents’.Tourism and urban everyday life are deeply connected in a mutually constitutive way. Tourism has become a key momentum of urban development and affects cities beyond its economic dimension. Urban everyday life itself can turn into a matter of tourist interest for people searching for experiences off the beaten track. Even living in a city as a resident involves moments, activities and practices which could be labelled as ‘touristic’. These observations demonstrate some of the various layers in which urban tourism and everyday city life are intertwined. This book gathers multiple interdisciplinary approaches, a diversity of topics and methodological variety to examine this complex relationship. It presents a systematic framework for the dynamic research field of new urban tourism along three dimensions: the extraordinary mundane, encounters and contact zones, and urban co-production.This book will be of interest to students and researchers across fields such as Tourism and Mobility Studies, Urban Studies, Leisure Studies, Tourism Geography, and Tourism Sociology.

Wer über das Wesen der menschlichen Freiheit genauer nachdenkt, wird finden, dass viel mehr neu verstanden werden muss als zunächst vermutet, um nicht auf Anhieb menschliche Freiheit unmöglich zu machen. Aus diesem Grund sind Schellings Philosophische Untersuchungen über das Wesen der menschlichen Freiheit aus dem Jahre 1809 auch heute noch eine lohnende Lektüre. Schelling bedenkt alle damit zusammenhängenden Gegenstände - immer aufs Sorgfältigste, aber manchmal bis zur Undurchdringlichkeit verwickelt -, die für die Möglichkeit menschlicher Willensfreiheit im strengen Sinne zu berücksichtigen sind. Dieser Band versammelt die aktuellen Perspektiven internationaler Forschung zur Freiheitsschrift, um die kritische Erschließung des philosophisch ertragreichen Textes voranzubringen.
