Volunteer Tourism and the Moral Self : Ethnographic Research of Non-Western Tourists

Omtale

This book offers a new lens to conceptualise volunteer tourism through the ‘moral self’. It moves beyond the absolute dichotomy between altruism and self-interest to the broader discussion around ways of being and becoming a moral self. Drawing on concepts and theories in geography, anthropology, sociology, tourism and education this book is the first ethnographic research of Asian perspectives and experiences of volunteer tourism.
