Synopsis
Addresses the issues and opportunities faced by researchers conducting qualitative tourism research in Asia.

Provides reflexive accounts from Asian tourism scholars as well as non-Asian academics who focus on the region.

Pulls together the work of both authoritative figures in the field and emerging qualitative tourism researchers.

This book explores the ontologies, epistemologies, methodologies, and methods that inform tourism qualitative research conducted either by Asian scholars or non-Asian scholars focusing on Asia. In addition to providing a platform for researchers to publish their qualitative journeys, it aims to encourage further Asian qualitative tourism research production.

The book not only includes chapters from Asian scholars but also non-Asian tourism researchers with a focus on Asia, as their chapters are crucial to represent the multiplicity of realities constituting ‘Asia’. It is of interest to the whole tourism academic community as it provides novel methodological insights from a non-Western perspective, which at the moment are often silenced by dominant (Western) voices.
