Why Domestic Tourism Will Have Increased Importance in the Post-Covid19 Era
Domestic tourism is similar to domestic travel in that most of its participants are leisure travellers. Consider day trippers, couples, families, sightseers, and others. The volume mentions that as hoteliers recover from COVID-19, this will be a significant market. In order to recover, countries like France and Germany, which have traditionally experienced high volumes of domestic tourism, will need to rely on it more than ever. While large-scale travel may be among the final aspects of society to recover from the 2020 Covid pandemic, increased domestic tourism is the primary indicator of recovery. Domestic tourism is expected to play a crucial role in the reconstruction of economies, and serve as a pointer for the wellness and security of countries as lockdowns and social distance restrictions worldwide ease.

Some nations may quickly get their economy back on track, whereas others will struggle much longer.

Due to a variety of socioeconomic factors that encourage people to achieve and pursue a better quality of life, health, wellness, and medical tourism are now acknowledged as among the most developed and expanding segments of the thriving tourism industry. However, these forms of tourism face a number of difficulties, among which is the disparity between its various conceptual approaches and definitions. The primary objective of this volume is to sum up and explain emerging factors in the Health, Tourism and Hospitality industry to offer a better understanding to stakeholders in the business. The concepts of health and wellbeing are occasionally used interchangeably, despite the fact that there are some contrasts between them. For example, the goal of a traveler may be to improve well-being, health or prevent illness. Wellness and healthcare tourism are seen as sub-concepts of health tourism from this point of view. Wellbeing tourism contrasts from healthcare tourism with regards to travel motives. The primary purpose of travel in healthcare tourism is to treat illness, whereas the goal of travel in wellness tourism is to prevent disease or maintain one's health and well-being. The objective of wellness tourism is not only to maintain well-being and prevent illness, but also to enjoy luxury and pleasure.

Introducing Anthropology

Introducing Anthropology

Merryl Wyn-Davis

Icon Books Ltd
2010

Anthropology originated as the study of 'primitive' cultures. But the notion of 'primitive' exposes presumptions of 'civilized' superiority and the right of the West to speak for 'less evolved' others. With the fall of Empire, anthropology became suspect and was torn by dissension from within. Did anthropology serve as a 'handmaiden to colonialism'? Is it a 'science' created by racism to prove racism? Can it aid communication between cultures, or does it reinforce our differences? "Introducing Anthropology" is a fascinating account of an uncertain human science seeking to transcend its unsavoury history. It traces the evolution of anthropology from its genesis in Ancient Greece to its varied forms in contemporary times. Anthropology's key concepts and methods are explained, and we are presented with such big-name anthropologists as Franz Boas, Bronislaw Malinowski, E.E. Evans-Pritchard, Margaret Mead and Claude Levi-Strauss. The new varieties of self-critical and postmodern anthropologies are examined, and the leading question - of the impact of anthropology on non-Western cultures - is given centre-stage. "Introducing Anthropology" is lucid in its arguments, its good humour supported by apt and witty illustrations. This book offers a highly accessible invitation into anthropology.

Sexy, hedonistic, hilarious - Ann Summers parties are the ultimate girls' night in. Promising the perfect antidote to the toils of everyday life - sexual pleasure - they are the 'naughty but nice' version of the classic Tupperware(R) party. Ann Summers parties are incredibly popular, with around 4000 parties held in Britain every week. The basis is simple: to provide an all-female environment where women can buy sexy lingerie, erotic fashion, sex toys and other sex-related products. In many respects these parties enable women to transgress social taboos in the comfort of their own homes. But they are also a subtle means of constructing and enforcing heterosexual femininity. This book investigates what really goes on at these 'special' homosocial gatherings, where heterosexual women drink, laugh, shop, play party games and talk about sex. Storr develops a new analysis of the ways heterosexual women identify with and against each other - and of what this tells us about gender, sexuality and consumption in contemporary society. Drawing on both participant observation and in-depth interviews with party organizers, this fascinating and fun book is an indispensable guide to the politics of 'post-feminist' culture.

This body of work is unique in its scope as it is the first of its kind to attempt to portray "Single-parent" families in a positive light and to explore the development of self from this vantage point. The author takes the reader for a trip down memory lane as she explores the historical views of the "family" and psychology both of which helped to frame the present day perception of the "family" and the perception of self. The reader will delve into the intimate lives of six women raised in a single parent household (mother only) and learn about their journey to form close relationships with men. They will learn that the development of self for these women is not based on a single experience but a myriad of experiences that shape who they are. The reader will come to learn that there is not a single definition of "family" and the many varieties they will learn about are every bit as valid and relevant.
