The global Covid-19 pandemic marks a watershed moment in recent history. Employing sociological and anthropological lenses, this timely volume helps us make sense of the pandemic’s impacts on tourism. In exploring coping strategies and robust transformations in these unique times at various sites and scales, it addresses vital questions on what the future might hold for tourism and its many stakeholders. * Freya Higgins Desbiolles, University of South Australia, Australia *

This volume, with its international perspective and holistic approach, poignantly captures the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on tourism. Its chapters cover the implications for businesses, the evolving attitudes towards spiritual tourism, and the changes facing tourism stakeholders and communities. Looking ahead, the book critically examines how the experiences of the past few years may – or may not – help guide tourism’s future.
