Please join many TSWG members for the (rescheduled) live, online discussion of The Ethnography of Tourism: Edward Bruner and Beyond (Lexington Books/Rowman & Littlefield), edited by Naomi Leite, Quetzil Castañeda, and Kathleen Adams.

All three of the book's editors and many of the contributing authors (including TSWG's own Nelson Graburn) will be on hand to discuss theoretical and methodological issues in ethnographic research on tourism, as well as Ed Bruner's legacy in the discipline, moderated by series editor Michael A. Di Giovine - followed by Q&A.

This is rescheduled from last month, as Ed Bruner had passed away a few days before the originally scheduled event. Following the Q&A session, we will invite viewers to share their own memories or statements about Ed and his impact on their lives and work.

Please e-mail LEXtourism@gmail.com with any questions or for the Zoom link and password.
