Discipline of Leisure: Embodying Cultures of 'recreation' (4) (Social Identities, 4)

by SimonColeman (Editor), KohnTamara (Editor)

Synopsis

The social scientific study of tourism has emphasized the effects of the post-industrial economy on travel and place. This volume takes these issues into a different area of leisure: the spare-time carved out by people as part of their everyday lives. It focuses on the body as a site of identity formation, and disciplined recreation of the self.
