The turn of the 20th century has brought new challenges and risks for the tourism industry. The recent COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the adoption of AI (artificial intelligence) and augmented reality as new forms of relationships. Of course, tourism is not an exception. The industry has recently experienced a set of radical shifts (because of digital technology) that include the recruitment of robots for help-desk duties at hotels, virtual tours, or tourism, and the adoption of new protocols to reduce tourism and pollution (only to name a few). Smart tourism has come to stay in academia. In this debate, the present book chapter discusses critically the opportunities, risks, and challenges of smart tourism. The chapter rests on Naisbitt's paradox which says overtly that the bigger the system, the more powerful its small players. Smart tourism is creating opportunities to make global businesses but with some risks to consumers' data privacy. Digital technologies are expanding the industry blurring the inter-class inequalities while paradoxically giving local stakeholders more independence. As a result of this, nation-states go through serious difficulties in regulating smart tourism. The lack of an applicable legal background ushers small firms into some bad/unethical/practices.

This new volume, Anthropology of Tourism: Exploring the Social and Cultural Intersection, begins with the editors’ introduction to the nature and evolution of tourism anthropology over decades. It then goes on to offer an author’s autoethnographic account from 13 years of tourism development by taking Lisbon as a case study, looking at how tourism development affects social change. The book considers tourism’s new problems and old solutions after the new normal created by the COVID-19 pandemic and its effect on the tourism industry. Chapters discuss the influence of sociodemographic characteristics of local community perceptions toward conservation and tourism; tourism destinations that embrace smart technology; the rights and obligations of tour guides; how human rights affect tourism choices; the impact of borders, biopolitics and, travel bans on tourism; the growth of dark and thana-tourism; and more. One chapter provides a unique exploration of the world of philatelic tourism (the study postage stamps and postal history) in different cultural backgrounds and countries.
Employing a multidisciplinary approach and offering new perspectives on tourism anthropology, this book will be of interest to tourism professors and scholars, industry professionals, as well as students and faculty intrigued by the convergence of tourism and social science.

The terrorist attacks known as 9/11 ignited a new stage of terror that
changed geopolitical relationships as never before. Bush´s
administration, days later, declared (in a bill) the War on Terror, as a
counter-terrorist campaign oriented to eradicate terrorism in the
globe. Needless to say, this campaign not only failed but also gave
origin to new radicalized cells (like ISIS). Terrorism symbolically
operated in the reign of terror which was politically manipulated to
demonize some pressure groups or check and balance powers very
important for liberal democracy. In the name of liberty, liberal
democracy committed its suicide! The present book chapter
discusses critically how the fear-based campaign used by American
presidents is being emulated by Argentina president Javier Milei in
the present.

Tourism, Terrorism and Security explores the current limitations of specialized literature to frame an all-encompassing understanding of tourism and security today. The main thesis of this book explores the idea that while tourists are workers who need to validate their political institutions through the articulation of leisure practices, terrorists are natives from the societies they hate. Terrorism has imposed a climate of mistrust, whereby tourists are targeted and killed to impose a political message.
This book explores the semantics of this message. Tourism, Terrorism and Security is a must-read for students and scholars of tourism, hospitality, security, and cultural studies.
In this transformative book, readers embark on an intellectual journey exploring the intricate interplay between society, technology, and emotions. Drawing together the works of researchers in diverse disciplines and cultural backgrounds, the book fosters critical discussions that delve into the philosophical quandaries underpinning AI's influence. By adopting a balanced perspective that acknowledges both risks and opportunities, the book equips postgraduate students, professionals, policymakers, AI analysts, and social scientists with the tools to comprehend the far-reaching effects of AI on human behavior, institutions, and even democratic processes.
As readers engage with this thought-provoking content, they gain understanding of how AI impacts various sectors, including education, travel, literature, politics, and cyber-security. AI and Emotions in Digital Society serves as an indispensable resource for navigating the ongoing AI revolution, inspiring informed decision-making, and fostering critical dialogue. By empowering readers to grasp the complexities of AI's role, the book opens possibilities for a future where humanity and technology harmoniously coexist, shaping the course of our digitally interconnected society.
Korstanje takes in turn the key areas of Ingenieros’s work and examines how his thinking can be brought to bear on the social challenges of today. In particular his work on mass migration and the “Other” have echoes in the problems facing many countries in the early twenty-first century. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students looking to better understand this key figure in Argentinian – and Latin American – sociology in the early twentieth century.
