Approaches and Methods in Event Studies

Beschreibung

This book challenges the reader to reach beyond the established modes of thinking about events by placing these phenomena against a backdrop of much wider, critical discourse.

Autor

Tomas Pernecky is with the Faculty of Culture and Society at the Auckland University of Technology, New Zealand. An advocate of post-disciplinary approaches to knowledge, his wide-ranging interests extend to examining a variety of philosophical, conceptual, theoretical and methodological issues. Examples include ontological inquiry into the constitution of social worlds through the phenomenon of events (e.g. Ideological, Social and Cultural Aspects of Events by CABI), sustainability-related concerns (e.g. Events, Society and Sustainability: Critical and Contemporary Approaches by Routledge) and the application of constructionist philosophy and hermeneutic phenomenology in tourism research. Tomas recently co-chaired the second Tourism Postdisciplinary Conference (Copenhagen, 22-24 June 2015) and co-edited a special issue on tourism post-disciplinarity for the journal Tourism Analysis.
