However, anthropological research has tended to focus primarily on either labor migration or on tourism.

She received her Ph.D. from the University of Manchester and is the author or editor of 11 books including the forthcoming (with Noel Dyck) Young Men in Uncertain Times, the Biographical Dictionary of Social and Cultural Anthropology and (with Nigel Rapport) The Trouble with Community.…
