Research Methods for Tourism, Hospitality, Leisure and Events

'This book did nothing less than make me re-see the world . . . Original, and very clever' Sathnam Sanghera, author of Empireland Borders draw one map of the world; money draws another. A journalist's riveting account exposes a parallel universe exempt from the laws of the land, and how the wealthy and powerful benefit from it. The map of the globe shows the world we think we know: sovereign nations that grant and restrict their citizens' rights. Beneath, above, and tucked inside its neatly delineated borders, however, a parallel universe has been engineered into existence, consisting of thousands of extraterritorial zones that operate largely autonomously, increasingly for the benefit of the wealthy and powerful. Atossa Abrahamian traces the rise of the hidden globe to thirteenth-century Switzerland, where poor cantons marketed the commodity they had - bodies, in the form of mercenary fighters. Following its evolution around the world, she reveals how prize-winning economists, eccentric theorists, visionary statesmen, and consultants masterminded its export in the form of free trade zones, flags of convenience, offshore detention centres where immigrants languish in limbo, and charter cities controlled by foreign governments and multinational corporations-and even into outer space, where tiny Luxembourg aspires to mining rights on asteroids. By mapping the hidden geography that decides who wins and who loses in this new global order - and how it might be otherwise - The Hidden Globe fascinates, enrages, and inspires. 'Vivid, revelatory' The New Yorker 'Atossa Abrahamian boldly renews our sense of reality and brilliantly illuminates our political impasse' Pankaj Mishra, author of The Age of Anger

Planning, Designing and Delivering

Sustainability in Events Management

This timely exploration of social geography reveals how inequality and justice unfold across interconnected scales around the globe. Through embodied, relational encounters, the book unpacks how everyday spaces shape who we are and what we might become. Grounded in care and hope, it invites readers to imagine fairer futures and remain committed to meaningful, long-term change.The text offers a dynamic, case-driven and sometimes image-driven exploration of pressing social issues in our increasingly unequal, post-pandemic world. Designed for student engagement, the book provides real-world case studies that span the globe, critical concepts, and thought-provoking questions to help readers analyse injustice, build conceptual "toolkits," and imagine routes toward meaningful social change. Rather than offering easy answers, this book equips readers with flexible, practical frameworks-encouraging selective, critical thinking to better understand and communicate complex social problems. Ideal for classroom use and independent study, it empowers students to connect theory with action and to think like geographers committed to justice. The book also includes Engagement Questions, encouraging readers to reflect on the subject of the chapter and the wider topics within the field of social geography.This book is essential reading for students of social and political geography, and allied fields of urban, health and wellbeing, and political geographies.

Relationalities, Encounters and Hope

Social Geographies

'Every page feels alive with passion' - Sophie Pavelle, author of 'Forget Me Not' 'A beautiful book' - Levison Wood, author of 'Walking the Himalayas' 'A heartfelt account of exploration and discovery' - Liz Bonnin, broadcaster Join scientist Dr Rosa Vasquez Espinoza as she uncovers one of the most unexplored regions on the planet. Dr Rosa is no stranger to the Amazon. Growing up with the rainforest as her back garden, she learnt the lessons of the rainforest from her grandmother, a native healer in natural medicine. She went on to pursue a classical education in science, gaining a PhD in the US, but has always been pulled back to the heart of the Amazon. As a leading biologist in her field, Rosa continues to explore the region through a unique blend of scientific inquiry and ancient insight. In this debut, you'll learn about Dr Rosa's journeys in the Amazon: her treacherous encounters with a boiling river, her conservation work with stingless bees, her experience of taking ayahuasca as a natural psychedelic - and all the amazing biodiversity of the rainforest. At the heart of Rosa's expedition is her passion to combine science with the indigenous knowledge of the Amazon. She shares her experience of learning from the indigenous communities that she visits, and shows what they have to teach us - stretching beyond the realm scientific knowledge. Here Rosa learns the most important lessons in how to reconnect to the natural world - and, in turn, will teach us to do the same. In this book, Rosa celebrates the richness of Amazonian culture, the wonders of biodiversity, and the enduring spiritual connections between humanity and the natural world.

How indigenous wisdom and scientific curiosity reconnects us to the natural world

The Spirit of the Rainforest

A groundbreaking history that explores how human desires have affected our relationship with the natural world, and why this is a cause for hope &nbsp; Donald Worster looks back over 200,000 years of Homo sapiens sapiens to show how human nature, especially the drive for food and sex, has responded to environmental conditions throughout history. Examining how this process led from foraging to the agrarian revolution and then to a capitalist way of life, Worster brings us face to face with a third transformation of human society that is beginning to take shape in China: an ecological civilization. &nbsp; This meticulously researched book explores how human desires have driven us to overrun our environments, and how we have adapted by creating new relationships with the earth. Tying the past to the future and humans to the planet, Worster acknowledges that we are at a potentially dangerous tipping point. Yet he offers a surprisingly optimistic vision, full of faith in the strength of our human desires, to help us develop exciting futures in a changing world—as we have done time and again—and achieve a good life for the billions of us trying to survive on a finite planet.
