GG 294 University of Guelph Politics of Place in Tourism Discussion
Discussion 1 – Politics of Place in Tourism (I will attach the peer post that need to be reply 1A+1B)
1a) Please introduce yourself to your fellow group members. Start off by discussing any experiences
you may have had with travel and tourism so far. Page & Connell (2020 p.16) point out that tourism is
place-specific as opposed to being placeless. What do these terms mean and why do you think Page &
Connell described tourism in this way? Do you agree/disagree with their comments? How might the
processes of globalization (p.17) create a sense of placelessness in tourism?
1b) In chapter 4, Page & Connell (2020) discuss many criteria relating to tourism demand but there are
several components missing. What kind of attention does Page & Connell (2020) give to diversity and
ethnicity within tourism demand? Is there a focus on LGBTQ+ and BIPOC narratives within this text?
What inferences can you make about general tourism academic content on ethnicity and diversity?
here are all the info you need for the reply, i will send you all the readings and other peer posts for reflection when you confirm.
just clarifying, you need to do one reply to 1A +1B with 400 words, and then fill out the reflection questions.
