Description
Summary:This book doesn't take you to tourism places of longing as you know them. The tourism sehnsuchtsorte presented in thirteen case studies in this publication are deeply enmeshed with ideological entanglements, geopolitical ruptures, and socio-cultural transformations of Central and Eastern Europe since 1945. They tell stories of desire for freedom, hope, resistance, arrival, return, of longing for a good life and a better society. Coming from a range of disciplines, the contributors to this volume add to a multi-faceted publication that introduces sehnsuchtsorte as an innovative thinking tool for studying the broad range of complex relationships between tourism mobilities, geopolitics, belonging, and the imaginary in socialist and post-socialist Central and Eastern Europe and beyond.
