Abstract

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, tourism economies in Asia were booming in ways unimagined previously. References to ‘The Asian Century’, a term invented by former Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping to proclaim the foreseeable economic triumph of the continent, signalled the traction gained by tourism research on Asia in terms of the quantity of articles published in international as well as domestic platforms (Sin et al., 2021). ‘Asia’ is a tricky term. The cultural and economic diversity of Asia and its imprecise and contested borders make definitions a daunting task, yet shared challenges and opportunities do unite Asia as a constellation of peoples and places. While the coronavirus disease in 2020 put a stop both to the momentum of Asian tourism and tourism research underway at the time, in 2023 at Tourist Studies we now see possibilities emerging from the painful shadows of the pandemic – possibilities to build back the scholarship theoretically, methodologically and empirically. Tourism scholarship in Asia started off on the backs of Anglo-western concepts and methodologies (Winter, 2009). On top of cultural and societal mismatches between the 1157932 TOU0010.1177/14687976231157932Tourist StudiesOng and Frohlick editorial2023

走出新冠肺炎疫情的阴影,重建得更好:旅游研究和亚洲关键旅游奖学金
在新冠肺炎大流行之前,亚洲旅游经济以前所未有的方式蓬勃发展。“亚洲世纪”是中国前领导人邓小平为宣布亚洲大陆可预见的经济胜利而发明的一个术语,从国际和国内平台上发表的文章数量来看,它标志着亚洲旅游研究的吸引力(Sin et al.,2021)“亚洲”是一个棘手的术语。亚洲的文化和经济多样性及其不精确和有争议的边界使定义成为一项艰巨的任务,但共同的挑战和机遇确实将亚洲作为一个民族和地区团结在一起。虽然2020年的冠状病毒疾病阻止了亚洲旅游业和当时正在进行的旅游研究的势头,但在2023年的旅游研究中,我们现在看到了从疫情的痛苦阴影中出现的可能性——从理论、方法和经验上重建学术的可能性。亚洲的旅游学术起步于英美概念和方法论(Winter,2009)。除了1157932 TOU0010.1177/14687976231157932 Tourist StudiesOng和Frohlick编辑2023之间的文化和社会不匹配

期刊介绍: Tourist Studies is a multi-disciplinary journal providing a platform for the development of critical perspectives on the nature of tourism as a social phenomenon through a qualitative lens. Theoretical and multi-disciplinary. Tourist Studies provides a critical social science approach to the study of the tourist and the structures which influence tourist behaviour and the production and reproduction of tourism. The journal examines the relationship between tourism and related fields of social inquiry. Tourism and tourist styles consumption are not only emblematic of many features of contemporary social change, such as mobility, restlessness, the search for authenticity and escape, but they are increasingly central to economic restructuring, globalization, the sociology of consumption and the aestheticization of everyday life. Tourist Studies analyzes these features of tourism from a multi-disciplinary perspective and seeks to evaluate, compare and integrate approaches to tourism from sociology, socio-psychology, leisure studies, cultural studies, geography and anthropology. Global Perspective. Tourist Studies takes a global perspective of tourism, widening and challenging the established views of tourism presented in current periodical literature. Tourist Studies includes: Theoretical analysis with a firm grounding in contemporary problems and issues in tourism studies, qualitative analyses of tourism and the tourist experience, reviews linking theory and policy, interviews with scholars at the forefront of their fields, review essays on particular fields or issues in the study of tourism, review of key texts, publications and visual media relating to tourism studies, and notes on conferences and other events of topical interest to the field of tourism studies.
