Mobility and Globalization in the Aftermath of COVID-19: Emerging New Geographies in a Locked World
Autor Maximiliano E. Korstanje, Babu Georgeen Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 aug 2022
Since COVID-19 started spreading across the globe, it affected not only the tourism industry but also ground global trade to a halt. Governments adopted restrictive measures to stop the spread of the virus, including the closure of borders, and airspace, the introduction of strict lockdowns and social distancing, much of which led to large-scale cancellations of international and domestic flights. This book explores how global tourists, who were largely considered ambassadors of democratic and prosperous societies in the pre-pandemic days, have suddenly become undesired guests.

Textul de pe ultima copertă
“Dr Korstanje and George’s consistent contribution to a political sociology of hospitality is further developed in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic in this book. By ‘translating’ this unfortunate conjunction into a series of research contexts entangled in recurring patterns of political violence, he skilfully explores the new conundrums of inhospitality. For anyone interested in studies of globalisation with an emphasis on unequal development and political violence, this is an excellent text to read.”
–Rodanthi Tzanelli, School of Sociology and Social Policy, University of Leeds, UK
“The concept of mobility is renewed here with those key concerns that underpin contemporary tourism studies, including pleasure, travel and the co-creation of experience. The question of who controls the type of knowledge that is created and circulated during global crises is examined in the light of post-colonialism. Overall, this text forms both an introduction to studies of western empire and a new synthesis of the colonial narrative and economic growth in the aftermath of COVID-19”. –Charlie Mansfield, University of Plymouth, UK
This book argues that COVID-19 revives a much deeper climate of terror which was instilled by terrorism and the War on Terror originally declared by Bush´s administration in 2001. It discusses critically not only the consequences of COVID-19 on our daily lives but also “the end of hospitality”, at least as we know it.
