Family violence has been recognised as a global public health pandemic. Incidents spike during peak holiday periods, yet the relationship between family violence and tourism remains largely unexplored. Holidays can represent a time of increased risk for those who live with family violence. Travel can also impact family violence victim/survivors through ongoing risk and/or trauma that can remain with them for life.
This book captures a range of critical issues related to the tourism and family violence nexus – natural disasters, technology-facilitated abuse, mental disorders, media framing, war, child abduction and LGBTQIA+ youth. Tourism and Family Violence: Critical issues facing tourism offers a holistic perspective, recognising that family violence can be perpetrated against females, males and same-sex couples.
Tourism and Family Violence: Critical issues facing tourism is a pioneering academic volume that addresses a significant gap in tourism scholarship. This ground-breaking volume brings together interdisciplinary insights from globally recognised experts.
Essential reading for academics and students in tourism, criminology, social work and psychology, as well as policymakers and government agencies seeking evidence-based, interdisciplinary approaches.
