Abstract:

Current directions in tourism research often favour the pursuit of a commodified tourism product in the search for increased efficiency and global profits using research paradigms that narrowly pursue this direction. It argues that the negative impacts of such a trajectory restrict our ability to understand and analyse the tourism experience requiring decommodifying actions in tourism research to move forward; it uses alternative theoretical and philosophical perspectives that include feminism, ecocentrism, community development and poststructuralism to argue a case.
