In recent years there has been a growth in both the practice and research of dark tourism; the phenomenon of visiting sites of tragedy or disaster. Expanding on this trend, this book examines dark tourism through the new lens of pilgrimage. It focuses on dark tourism sites as pilgrimage destinations, dark tourists as pilgrims, and pilgrimage as a form of dark tourism. Taking a broad definition of pilgrimage so as to consider aspects of both religious and non-religious travel that might be considered pilgrimage-like, it covers theories and histories of dark tourism and pilgrimage, pilgrimage to dark tourism sites, and experience design. A key resource for researchers and students of heritage, tourism and pilgrimage, this book will also be of great interest to those studying anthropology, religious studies and related social science subjects.

Over the last decade, the concept of dark tourism has attracted growing academic interest and media attention. Nevertheless, perspectives on and understanding of dark tourism remain varied and theoretically fragile whilst, to date, no single book has attempted to draw together the conceptual themes and debates surrounding dark tourism, to explore it within wider disciplinary contexts and to establish a more informed relationship between the theory and practice of dark tourism. This book meets the undoubted need for such a volume by providing a contemporary and comprehensive analysis of dark tourism.

Download and read online ebook Military Pilgrimage and Battlefield Tourism write by John Eade. This book was released on 2017-10-02. Military Pilgrimage and Battlefield Tourism available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Military Pilgrimage and Battlefield Tourism is the first volume to bring together a detailed analysis of professional military pilgrimage with other forms of commemorating military conflict. The volume looks beyond the discussion of battlefield tourism undertaken primarily by civilians which has dominated research until now through an analysis of the relationship between religious, military and civilian participants. Drawing on a comparative approach towards what has mostly been categorised as secular pilgrimage, dark tourism/thanatourism, military and religious tourism, and re-enactment, the contributors explore the varied ways in which memory, material culture and rituals are performed at particular places. The volume also engages with the debate about the extent to which western definitions of pilgrimage and tourism, as well as such related terms as religion, sacred and secular, can be applied in non-western contexts.

This book was released on 2000. Dark Tourism available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Humanity has been fascinated with recent death, disaster, and atrocity since the earliest days of pilgrimage -- indeed, many consider this morbid curiosity to be the origin of tourism. Modern times have seen a revival of tourism "products" allied to these dark sites. Lennon and Foley have spent many years researching what they call Dark Tourism across the globe. This provocative book seeks to explain this phenomena by focusing in particular on concentration camps in Poland and Germany, and sites in the U.S. ranging from the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center to the Sixth Floor in Dallas and the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C.
