A meaningful contribution by @DrKateDashper and @rafinkel drawing on the interconnections between #darktourism and a #feminist perspective. From our forthcoming book "Critical Theories in Dark Tourism Issues, Complexities and Future Directions". degruyter.com/document/doi/1…

Excited to be part of this book! @DrKateDashper & I explore the legacy of UK witch trials in tourism and events contexts, with a chapter on gender representation in witches tours. Spoiler alert: Misogyny is alive and well and dressing up as fun entertainment.

📣Coming out late Fall where we talk about critical theoretical perspectives used in #darktourism by navigating through some onto-epistemological issues, theoretical entanglements and future possibilities.@DrBaileyAdie @rafinkel @danceprof1 @MLKStreet @Ethan_Bottone @AVarnajot

Available #OpenAccess - we argue that events management/studies needs to engage more in critical EDI research - & publish it in the core events journals - to progress the field @juliacalver @rafinkel @tefletcher1984 @LamondUKCEM @DrLuPlatt @BrionySharp__
