Abstract

This book discusses critically all problems which today the epistemology of tourism faces. From social sciences, or economy, tourism may be seen or take diverse forms, what would be interesting to interrogate, what tourism is?. Editors, who compile an erudite work of almost 30 independent chapters which inspect tourism from diverse views, acknowledge one of the problems consists in the polysemic nature of tourism as well as the commercial interests behind. This means the incompatibility of the definitions coined by each social discipline or the industry created an state of indiscipline in terms of Tribe (1997), Nechar & Netto, (2011) and Thirkettle & Korstanje, (2013). Though much struggle has been posed to declared tourism as a science, the fact is that three weaves debates how seriousness of its methodology.
